People's lives mean something
We all have our voice
We all have something to say
We all have a spirit
That tells us who we really are
No person's life
Is any better
Or somehow more important
Than the life of someone else
We all have our own unique voice
Our own unique ways of viewing things
We all share this planet together
Every life deserves a chance
No matter how lost
No matter how separated
People might be from reality
How far away people can be away from the truth
Everyone deserves their say
No one should ever be killed
Or forfeit
Just for the sake of another
We must all be able to come together
We must be willing to appreciate
The wonderful uniqueness
That comes together in a wonderful unity as well
Even as we have our own ideas
Our own thoughts
Our own way
We breathe with one breathe
And we beat with one heart
That beats to many smaller drums
Even as varied and as different as we all are
We are all still one
Joined in humanity
