A New Chapter

There is a snarl on a man's face As another passes by A look of disgust Hateful words still linger in the wind Uttered by those who only see the color of one's skin To some, the only color that matters is green Expanding profit margins to fulfill financial dreams Forfeiting judgment to feel a deep sense of satisfaction Painfully blinded Narrow minded What's moving you? Built upon an institution Where wealth still walks atop poverty Income designed borders in a competitive society Ignorant minds building hate behind closed doors I simply will not partake in the humiliation of man Sinking below solidarity Sour hiss of bigotry Stuck in our ways Ever rejecting diversity Take a look around It's not hard to miss With so many disillusioned Are we lost or drowning in bliss? Sorely blinded A biased mindset Hateful words lingering on the wind Striking down unity This world is closed off to the open minded We must bring this to an end This is our story Let's put an end to this chapter A new generation to write the sequel So tomorrow we may live as equals Different skin. Different faith. One people.
