The Church Preaches acceptance in difference,
But loving the same-sex is completely off limits.

We’ll feed you and do deal with you, if you stay behind
our religious gate, if we’re going to coexist we must resist
the temptation to hate, all the different creatures our God
Creates.

We’ll line up and protest, even sign a piece of paper.
But the change won’t come till a two-thirds vote later.

People are bound by the chains of our intolerant constitution,
and yet the reason we’re even alive is because change, it’s
called evolution.

You say you’d like to start with what you see in the mirror,
But you’ll have to turn on a light in-order to get a clear picture.

A woman was once robbed and killed in broad day light.
Plenty of witnesses but none helped because their schedules
were too tight.

Now I know that I am not perfect, I don’t stand on a self-
righteous pedestal,
But I’ll do whatever for the better and that’s more that can
be said for you.

I won’t get a cooperate job because I see my body as a canvas,
you and I have the same knowledge but you’re inkless, so you’ll
surely be accepted.

We press and stress the importance of college, but after
graduation,how to deal with bills and debt is only remaining
knowledge.

Yeah I could hit you with written out facts until you drown in the ink,
but the truth is when it comes to human extinction, we’re on the f***ing
brink.

We sag our pants and clean our jay’s as the world passes by,
“I’ll murder anything bruh, as long as I high.”

You’re asian and I’m dyslexic, does that make ANY difference?
The human body is 99% the same but that 1% is our only
interest.
There are young minds tweeting rather than reading. Too
busy with their selfies and ugg boots to even notice if they
were bleeding. McDonalds is now Thanksgiving, Christmas
no longer about giving. And while society around us crumbles
we hide in our happy place blindly living.

Diabetes, cancer, and AIDs yeah they all suck,
but NONE of these diseases would exist if we actually gave a f***.

They tax citizens to pay for our football,
but when democrats and republicans debate they can’t come to
a helpful draw.

China reads books in another direction therefore we’re so
much better.We shrink on what tears us apart when we
should grow in what brings us together.

We reenact yearly a war in which fathers killed bothers,
when we should fight and care for one ANOTHER.

Ya see it does NOT take a genius to know the world has a pretty
big problem,
But it takes a Nation full of idiots to think they can be solved by
ignoring them.
