What makes us?
What makes us hate?
What makes us love?
The difference between making fun of someone's weight
Or saying their clothes fit like a glove
Maybe it's our differences that make us not ok and lie
Or maybe it's the reason we don’t wanna die
But still we discriminate
Saying things like”This is why you won’t enter heaven's gate’
But inside we’re not so different you and me
Just take a look under our skin and you will see
You see, everyone is faced with injust
But every time we try, our plans go bust
But maybe that’s the answer for us
Either we go just, or we go bust
We act as if the other is inferior
But when they try to change that, they are blocked with a barrier
Discrimination is a disease and we are all the carrier
But instead of changing we try to cope
By either shooting or smoking dope
We do it knowing its not the answer
So it goes on and spreads like cancer
When it spreads, we become biased
Because when we do, we feel the highest
Everyone is faced with it in their daily lives
Because we refuse to look through the others eyes
So what makes us love and what makes us hate?
Let’s just forget the bad and finally come together and just be great
