Is it really okay
That we let people go down roads
Where we have seen people die
Is it really okay to let people go to war
When the fight that has been started
Was never even theirs
Is it really okay
To tear each other down
When all we are trying to do
Is get through life?
Is it really okay
When people throw their fists through the air
To solve a problem
That we should just sit down and consider
Is it really okay
To have this system that we are all confined to?
To not have any freedom
Even when they say we do?
I say that the way you look
Doesn't make you any less capable
Of doing something that you love
So for those of you who judge
A person by the color of their skin
Or what they have in their pants
Pay less for labor that is equally taxing
Just because they are not the average white male
If you don't ask yourself
If it is really okay
To do this to people
Know that you are a monster
And this world has only made you worse
