Because The Color Of Their Skin

I don't know if I can survive

In this world today

There are people and kids dieing 

From all this violence

Just because the color of their skin

Just because the way that they look

We need justice for what's right

Like the story of Trayvon 

What Zimmerman did was so wrong

This world is out of control

We need to learn to love

And not want to hurt someone else

Just because the color of their skin

Just because the way that they look

It just doesn't make no sense

To want to hurt someone else

Just because the color of their skin

Just because the way that they look

Just because the color of their skin
