Racist people, <br />Are the saddest these days. <br />Racist people, <br />And their ways... <br />Are fading away. <br /> <br />Hatred kills! <br />Chills. <br />And often excused, <br />As heroism. <br /> <br />Hatred kills! <br />And for thrills, <br />Often is defended... <br />As a pride. <br />No matter if it hangs... <br />Or drags alongside, <br />Insecurites denied. <br />Hiding the fact... <br />Their is jealousy behind, <br />Evil and often... <br />Masquerading eyes. <br /> <br />Black, white... <br />Brown or yellow folks, <br />Provoking attacks. <br />On others. <br />Or themselves! <br />To stab with a vengeance, <br />Behind a back. <br />To distort facts! <br /> <br />Racism kills. <br />And there is no sense in it. <br />Racism kills. <br />And the sense that's meant. <br />Racism kills. <br />Leaving minds incensed. <br />Exposing ills... <br />And evil wills. <br /> <br />Racism kills. <br />And there is no sense in it. <br />Racism kills. <br />And the sense that's meant. <br />Racism kills. <br />Leaving minds incensed. <br />Exposing ills... <br />And evil wills. <br />And evil wills to kill will end.<br /><br />Lawrence S.
