Pudding

A chocolate bar and milk

Hot coco and marshmellows

White chocolate and Dove Silk milk chocolate

Burnt trees and fresh snow

Me and my friend Zo

Black and white

White and black

 

This bathroom vs. that one

The front of the bus vs. the back

This school vs. that one

My house vs. that shack

Black and white

White and black

 

Now you mix chocolate and vanilla together

To make chocolate-vanilla swirl pudding

Like people, you try to mix it up

But in the end, there is silent discrimination

A clear line between Black and White

You can still see the chocolate mixed in with the vanilla

Just like chocolate-vanilla swirl pudding
