And Yet - It Is What It Is
Our lives have known such different ways
Such different ways have we
And yet despite such varied worlds
The same sun helps us see
The teachings of a higher source
So similar of grain
So why then must our names, our skins
Give rise to hate and pain
The meals we set to nourish babes
To blossom healthy lives
Though dished up from a different pan
A common fire thrives
And yes, the love that bears its fruit
To sow its yielding seed
The very same no matter where
In manner and in deed
Our lives have known such different ways
Such different ways have we
So why not share and learn and form
A larger family
