The Insignificance of Skin Color

The color of love will prevail: we, white,
     black, yellow, red, shall pacify the clash
     between good folks and ignorant, white trash,
haters who oppress others without right!

In numbers, unity explodes like night  
     afire with light (like a delivering flash!)
     swiftly tearing down hate with a loud crash,
silencing bigotry's bark, and racism's slight.

For none can dismantle the message of
     bold, fearless Youth who challenge the old view,  
and share a new worldview proclaiming love,
     justice, and equal rights we never knew.
Our tribes can live in peace and rise above
     as one, working together as one hue.
