We All Bleed The Same Colour Blood....Dont We?

If you cut me with a knife

I bleed red blood don’t you?

So tell me something then

What colour is the blood

Under the colour of your skin

 

I fight for what I believe

Yet all races and creeds cry out…

All I feel is hate

All I see is profanity

All I see is violence

All I know is pain

All I know is anger

Poverty teaches us to endure

Ridicule teaches us to fight

And people say

Ignorance is bless

 

Odd isn’t it

No matter what colour skin you are

We all bleed the same colour blood

People judge you on your appearance

Or how you speak

Or just the way you are

We all may have our differences

In our cultures, in our Backgrounds

But under the colour of our skin

We all bleed and breathe the same

 

And if that’s the case…

 

**Why are there so many ****** WARS?**
