Different Lenses
Location
Two cultures can get me twisted,
The white community is always listed,
When filling out my race,
There is always a blank space,
I'm not latino, native american, white or black,
I am Indian and thats what the applications always slack.
With friends at school and my temple crew,
There is always a different point of view,
At school my friends ask me to play baseball,
But my Indian society tells me to play with cricket ball
Even though I respect every culture and their different lenses,
Sometimes I wish we could just break the cultural fences
