Over six million Jews suffered and died 

Because of their beliefs and trying to hide

They were taken away and placed into camps

Where they were forced to work and the weather was damp

 

Some were lucky and ran away,

Others were unfortunate and perished during their stay

Some were brave and some were bold

Yet all their stories remain untold

 

We don't know all the people who died,

Or suffocated during the trasnit ride

But none the less we honor them all,

Because none of them deserved to suffer under Hitler's call

 

We keep this knowledge to our hearts,

To prevent the world from falling apart

Because when six million people die from one,

We know that's injustice and something must be done 

 

We shouldn't let differences tear us apart,

Because that leads to fighting and wars begin to start

Everyone is equal 

Each generation is a sequel 

 

Why hate when we can love?

There's nothing to be afraid of

But we must never forget,

Six million Jews suffered and died

Because of their beliefs and trying to hide

After learning about the Holocaust, I decided I wanted to do something in the honor of the people who passed and the ones who were lucky enough to survive.
