WHAT MAKES YOU THINK….

What makes you think you are better 
Just because you're skin color is white?
Do you really think that it matters
In God's special loving light?

What makes you think you are better
When  you act out in hate not love?
Do you really think its not noticed
By God who is watching  from above?

Where did your hatred come from
Or where did it all ever start?
Why do you act with such violence?
With no love for others in your heart?

This war goes on for equality 
For justice and freedom and peace.
For only then can we all live together,
When this needless fighting does cease.
