difference

Location

what is the difference between you and i

i'm blad-headed (handsome mind you) and you have blonde hair

what is the difference between me and you

i'm light and your dark

what is the difference between i and you

i'm 5'8

you're 6'5

what is the difference between you and me

you are from the suberbs

i'm from the inner city you call hood

 

tell you the truth

there is no difference 

we are all brothers and sisters from a different mother

did you know that we are 99.9% the same

the .1% is features

but yet this .1% seems to outweigh the 99.9% when we call each other

niggas, spics, poor white trash, a faggot, chinks

why is that

because you were brainwashed

by delusions that is not even based on facts

 

here's a fact

we all bleed red

here's another fact

we are all brothers and sisters

here's more facts

we all have the right to tell our own story

here's one more fact

whether you like it or not

we are all one
