#skingdeep
There was a time and place where skin color did not matter Race is only skin deep It is not a feeling or something that matters Not black enough Not white enough Asking god why no silky straight hair Asking god why no short ***** curly hair I am not my hair nor skin color I am a child that has grown up into a world with labels Constantly changing who I am by definition Generations on top of generations are loving each other Regardless of race When it is finally time for us To see the world end and destroy Love will be love No matter what race The word mix wont be in play Rather just recognized as people
