The Road to Nowhere

Equal Rights

They cry out with desperate voices,
'Equality for all!'
But if they break because of the truth,
Do they make a sound, or simply fall?

Can you see how much it hurts?
Not being treated the same.
All because of how they feel or look,
They shouldn't be ashamed!

I'm tired of this system,
The roots we're built upon.
The things these kids are getting taught.
Please, just make it stop.

I don't get it,
How you can push someone so far,
That they'd rather die,
Than be who they really are.

Just stop.
Can't you see its not okay?
Millions of people alienated,
Day after wretched day.

Because of who they love,
Because of how they look,
Can't you see that everyone's different?
You could if you would just pick up a book.

Illiterate swine that floods our nation,
why can't others be who they are?
Why have you done this?
Why have you pushed them that far?

Can't you just let them be them?
Can't you just stay there and sit?
Seriously. What's you're gain?
Here. I've got it,

It should be men, women, and
children all the same,
Sexual orientation, religion,and race,
None should be put to shame.
