The Spirit Of Racism
Racism is a spirit,
of colour supremacy,
colour against color,
it involves you and me,
whether your black, white,
yellow or brown,
racism is a spirit,
that knocks us all down.
But if we stand and all unite,
in colour, love and creed,
we can rise against the racism,
its a spirit we do not need,
because racism is a spirit,
that divides us everyday,
and causes the most conflict,
in every possible way.
