My view of Racism

Pass the colors, look into the soul
Only a few pursue this noble goal
Forget the colors of the skins on your face
We're not divided into species, all part of the human race

Why do we generate hate based on birth location
We should hate the people with bad destinations
We wage war on each other based on how we look?
That's stupid as hell! Go read a few books!

Sectors and factors separated by religion
The death of our futures will come from this division
Scientists, their thoughts are the ones that are right
All sharing information, oblivious to any international fight

We'll die if we don't learn to co-exist
It'll bring Armageddon, Ragnarok, or the Apocalypse
We naturally fear what we don't comprehend
Well, understand this, that'll spell out our end

Who knows when is Rapture, the day Jesus returns?
If we don't stand together, in Hell we will burn
They all think that their racism is the path that is right
All I say is "Amaterasu, please show them the light...."

Racism will kill us, that's the final conclusion
Will you care about colors in chaotic post-Apocalyptic confusion?
If there's the slightest chance that you will, you're an idiot
When you're dying in the wasteland, ask yourself, "Was it worth it?"
