Racism reality

Racism is a reality we face

In this world, a dark and shameful place

Divided by skin color, we are told

Like print determines our worth

From the moment we are born

Society tells us what to wear

Lighter skin, more beautiful

But this belief is not wrong

We are taught to hate and fear

People who don't look like us, oh dear

But why do we let this define us?

The way we treat each other is a crime

History shows us pain and suffering

Of those treated as borrowed

Their freedom, their rights, their souls

Even if taken away, their story is not told

But, today

Racism continues on its way

Injustice and prejudice still exist

It leaves irrevocable scars

We cannot deny the truth

That racism is a poisonous, merciless beast

It divides us and breeds hatred

But it is not too late to change our destiny

Let's break the chains of this reality

And embrace one another with love and unity

Because we are all human, regardless of race

Together we can create a better place

So let's unite hand in hand

Erase the lines that divide this land

Let's fight this ugly truth

Spread love and acceptance to our youth

Racism may be the reality we face

But it is up to us to make this world a better place

Let's break the cycle and break free

And embrace each other's diversity.
