Conquering Hate

Conquering Hate A plague passed from generation to generation Bouncing around from nation to nation Seems like we'll never escape this curse Throughout time it only gets worse Wars over religion seemed quite odd Just worship differently but to the same God Bloodshed just for being unlike the other We have the same father are you not my brother Just one example, there are plenty more From beyond the ceiling to beneath the floor List as long as the ages All we're doing is adding pages From politics, religion, sexuality and race Seems the hate is only changing face All of it makes no sense to me How as humans are we divided so easily Do we not breathe the same air? Even though we have different skin and hair Noses, body types, ears and eyes We bleed blood and live under the same skies But but but we don't all think the same So, we’re dealt different hands in life's gam Doesn't mean we should take another's light For things that won't matter at the end of night Causes meant to unify, media uses to seperate Then make us the cause of the hate Before you know it we're at each others throat Still missing the fact that we're on the same boat So drop your guns, cease the aggression Let's work towards ending mental segregation Spread love and understanding in every nation Time to start humanity's transformation We are but one race and that is the human race We live, we die, we just have a different face Stop blaming the whole for the actions of a few Love conquers hate. That's all we need to do If you disagree the problem is you ~ Devonte7638
