differences.
The world is filled with so much hate
So much discrimination
Against races
Gender
Sexuality
Religion
Age
Are we not all people?
We all breathe the same air
We all bleed the same
We all rely on the beating of our hearts
We all love, hate, live, die
And yet
Someone decides they're superior to their neighbor
Based on the contrasting colors of their skin
We are doomed to destroy our own race
As hate is the gunpowder
Ready to ignite
And shoot a hate-filled bullet
Into the heart of the world
awakening.
It happens every day
You are lucky, finding them in sleep
But I'm wide awake
I'm fully conscious with eyes wide open
Trying not to stare at the demons
The ones that lurk in the shadows
The ones that follow you
The ones that watch you
The ones reading this over your shoulder right now
The ones getting ready to strike
It's only a matter of time
Until you see them too
And descend into madness
With me by your side
