As one, a colorless hope

You say I'm white while others say black, Why should my colour cause so much flak. When you say I'm black it brings on a frown, If you looked closer you'd see I am brown.
Across the world we come in differing shades, As humans we all have unique facades. Some are light while others are tanned, Yet underneath we're all the same brand.
Why does it bother us why all the fuss, Some spend hours in the sun trying to look like us.I'll tell you this though I know its not right, But some of us even try to be white.
Native Americans are mainly red, Is that justification for shooting them dead, In Asia you have those other fellows, Who's skin color comes in differing yellows.
I then look at you and it makes me think, You're not really white you're a shade of pink. When you get hurt it's certainly true, Your skin color turns to black and blue.
When we become unwell it has to be said, It can make us all look like the living dead, Prejudice against color is not the way, You can guarantee it will cause affray.
Regardless of color why do we care, It's time we were all made fully aware, As humans there's nothing we cannot achieve, Regardless of color we have got to believe.
Just cut a finger that is the seed, To prove beyond doubt that all of us bleed, Take a closer look no it's not in your head, All of our bloods are the same shade of red.
And sure as the stars glisten in the sky, We will all live and we'll surely die, This only highlights that we all must strive, To build a bond so that we can survive.
As we grow crops you can make planes, We can build shelters to help when it rains, You can build homes while we raise the cattle, United as one we can win this battle.

When we look at each other let's see just a face, Instead of us thinking I wonder what race, Color means nothing when all's said and done, For us all to prosper we must live as one.
As human beings we really must stand, Together united hand in hand,
We're all truly equal keep that in mind, No culture or race should be undermined.
Color's like beauty it's only skin deep, It's what's underneath that we need to keep, Then we can live in a world without war, That very word racism we should all abhor..
We can all live in comfort with no need for strife, loving our neighbours what a wonderful life, It's not just a dream it's something we can do, But only as one can we make it come true.
It's now time as a species we all faced the fact, That our planet is doomed unless there's a pact, We must end this hatred we've got for each other, Only then can we live life as sister and brother.
When we accept this all conflict will cease, Only then will we achieve a definitive peace, Our past indiscretions we can learn to forgive, Together as humans is how we must live.
Our future depends on our being collective, We'll all surely die by being racially selective, Only then can we say we've at last got it right,
And if we lived it right, one life is fair enough.
