Words we live by shape our tomorrows,
Peace, hope, faith, put an end to sorrow.
Love conquers many ills, shapes the road to success,
Dreams, brotherhood, together our journey is best.

My America
I still believe in my America.
Once Revolutionary and Commanding.
The members of our nation will once again, rise.
Rise now, from its divisiveness, and inequalities.
Our flag churns through the winds of negativity.
The cyclone of racism, politics, and hate,
Cannot withstand my America.
Gather now my Patriots,
Stand tall, soaring above the storm.
Believe, in the dream.
Belief, and dreams are alone insufficient.
We must march on, together.
United, pledging allegiance to all.
Will we accept this vast undertaking?
We Must.
We have a lot to learn from this man
Now let's see if we all can
Words uttered having meaning
They cannot be tracked back
Rewritten with different meaning
Racism is racism
Shameful and demeaning
It should be talked about
Telling the person who utters it
No, this is not acceptable
Educate the children teach them well,
So they can teach their elders
No more bigotry,
No more bias too,
Just a world where men,
And women are not judged,
By the differences they hold,
Let’s find the courage,
The dignity and the conviction,
To transform prejudice, backward, beliefs,
Into tolerance and impartiality,
It is possible to become more enlightened,
The words in back rooms,
Behind closed doors,
Still echo in the world,
Let’s end that hidden prejudice, too
For educated, open-minded people
Want to live in that world
Where racism is dead.
