Difference Doesn't Matter

We saw the other as weak, for they had feelings
We called the other as fools, they weren't like us
We wondered why they cared, what we thought
Because the world steals all the wise teachings
Because that world says we'll never find justice
And if they think that way, they never will
For they began by being selfish and cruel
And they had arrogantly then believed
This was a world that they'd wrought
All this time they had wrongly perceived
For this world functions upon a set of rules
One where we see each other, as having worth
Our different skin colors are a gift, not a curse
And we are made stronger by knowing the truth
We may be different, yes we may have problems
Our hearts are the same and our minds all think
It is time to love one another, for who they are
Accept and love, our destinies are now linked
One people, one race, one species was made
Let us forgive one another, heal all our scars
