It is not the differences among people that has caused violence
But the fact that we are so similar
We seek to demean others so that we feel superior
In the back of our minds (deeply repressed in most) we know we are all equal
And that is scary because most did not grow up feeling equal
Many were told that they were special, the best, the most unique
While other were told that they weren't worth nearly as much as a drink
So it is in this feeling of disappointment upon uncovering the truth that makes us the same
One is taken down a notch while the other is brought up to a level plane;
We are all vying to be different rather than to be ourselves, to be seen as special in some way
So try being yourself instead of being different, and realize we’re all the same
