Prejudice: it's our preference
Get this:
Not good or bad, just tendencies that exist
Internal thoughts based on assumptions
The problem arises when people with gumption
act with corruption
Discrimination: not only passing judgement as a group
it's justification
using differences as proof
to treat people like poop
Oppression: systematic exploitation
It's a win-lose situation affecting the lives of our nation
The bottom line:
Who decides who is human?
basic rights for black and white, voice to those in ruin
Are rights exclusive to those who fit the standard mold?
Inscribing humanizing to the bold?
What will the future hold?
The fact stares me straight in the eyes
If the suppressed voices never rise,
the land of the free is a lie.
