You have no say
Yes I do
For I shall have the right to speak
Isn’t it Freedom of Speech?
No man shall be prohibited to speak their mind

Go to the back of the bus
Why because I’m black?
Racial discrimination marks my face
Blacks and Whites must come together after all
No man should be turned down because of color
Race, Color
Does it matter?
For God created all his children equal
No man should be left behind.

Violence
Houses on fire
The world has gone insane
I mean mad
What has happened?
We need to bring Peace and Unity
One day this will end
We will look back at the past
Look at where we are standing now
Have we made a difference?
