Why Is It
Why is it that
No one can accept
The way we truly are
Doesn’t matter where we
We come from near or far
Why is it that people?
Are so quick to judge
Why is it that we are?
Still not smart enough
To know what we do is wrong
It’s a mistake we do too much
And we have to know that we
Have to stop
We push and push
Then we fall
But that doesn't mean
It has to be the end for us all
Why is it that we never look?
Past the outer core
We must look inside and
Find something more
We do this too much
And I include myself in this
That characterizing people is wrong
But we have a fear of bring disused
It’s ok for you to tease someone
And when it’s done to you
You hate it
Think twice before you talk
And if you can't just take a walk
It’s not worth your time to stand there and judge
Go out and make a friend
That you would never have thought of
Put your thoughts of negativity aside
And your true feelings will come alive
Why is it that we never stop?
Its so hard like we have become
Accustomed to it
What a shame that we can say that
We should never get used to it
Race, Creed, Color,
Why does it all matter?
Why does it bother you?
Why does it make you fill with hate?
Why can't you see this world is too big?
Just to go to waste
There are many things
To worry about then the exterior
Why does all this negativity?
Make someone feel so inferior
Does it really matter?
Where you come from?
Does it matter what religion you have?
Does it matter if you wear different clothes?
From everyone else?
why does it matter?
It shouldn't matter
the clique you belong to isn't the best
or what clothes you wear
or the religion you practice
why should anyone care
bout what you have or what you are
the most important is who you are
in the inside
where the light gleams
on the outside so much hurt
that the light can't get past the seams
When will we learn
when will we change
put the negativity aside
and put some positively in place
Why does it matter?
A simple question to ask
Why does it matter?
If you are white, Hispanic, Asian or black
Why does it matter?
Why does it matter?
Just why?
