Asian, Latina, Black, White
Why do we continue to base peace and love on sight
To try to build a world and community with segregation
We try to maintain law and order without instilling humanity and patience
We've created  stereotypes that are passed from generation to generation
Kids growing up with nothing but self hate because they aren't Caucasian
Preaching "all lives matter" in every nation
But with every blink another man is dead
Another child is crying himself to bed
And another woman has let an opinion get to her head
So In a world full of hate and bloodshed
We must come all come to agreement and think with one mind and soul
And hope to be the change in generations untold
Uplifting each other with courage and bravery
Honoring the great Bob Marley and emancipating  ourselves of mental slavery
