Perception, perception,
mother of deception,
strangers trying to tell you who you are!
Perception, perception,
judging the book by it's cover.
Perception, perception,
making false facts about each other!
Walking down your street,
what do you see?
A little old man,
who you think is crazy.
Have you ever talked to him once?
Do you even know his name?
Do you think you are God?
Do you find Judgement to be some sort of game?
When the truth rises to the surface,
you will see,
that this man was in the Middle East,
killing Iraqis!
Fighting for your freedom,
by killing other men,
getting blood,
on his innocent hands.

Your walking through the mall,
what do you see?
A teenage girl,
pretty as can be.
But by the magnitude of her beauty,
your mind concludes,
that she is a *****,
and is very rude.
Have you ever talked to her once?
Do you even know her name?
Do you think you are God?
Do you find Judgement to be some sort of game?
For all you know,
she could be bruised to the bone.
With a father that beats her,
he likes the way she moans.
But you know nothing,
and still you judge.
Holding against her,
an imaginary grudge.

Who made you a God?
Who do you think you are?
Who made you a God?
Who do you think you are?
Your nature disgusts me,
labelling people like it's your job.
I'm asking you to trust me,
stop making people you don't know sob.
Why judge the book by it's cover,
when the words inside are worth so much more?
Why consider every man a ****,
or every women to be a *****?
Words hurt like sticks and stones,
if the person throwing has a good arm.
They have been known to break bones,
leaving your self respect to be disarmed.
