It’s easy to misinterpret all we hear,
We think, we see, we feel, we fear
But why we do this, we do not know,
Is it to protect our life, our show?

In our heads we make our fate
It’s based on what we’ve learned to hate
This hate, did it grow from fear?
And is it why we keep it near?

To abandon what we have learned so long
These feelings in us, oh so strong
Are we able, will we succeed?
Or are they part of our daily need

To stop thinking of others as we learned
We need to see the respect they’ve earned
And see that they are just like we,
They learned to fear, the way we be

Do we see this? Do we dare?
Can we know this, dare we care?
We think, we see, we feel, we fear,
It’s easy to misinterpret all we hear.
