Why do we fight both black and white  'Cause we don't understand  If you give-you get-but if you want respect  Then please understand  Hatred begins and no one wins  Tell me who pays the price  From our generation to the next  Have respect for human life    A man kills another man for things he doens't understand  How can someone take a another life  If people just don't give a damn  Can't respect a man for what he is a man  Then the world will destruct from racial strife    I do believe in self-and self-respect is where it starts  You have to love yourself before you love me  And if love must play a part-then it has to come from the heart  In order for the pain of hate to cease    We got-we got-we got to stop hatred  Hatred is something perpetrated by lies  We got-we got-we got to have justice  The system plays god by who lives or dies  We got-we got- we got to have equality  Do not judge a man by the color of his skin  We need-we need- we need understanding  To make this world a better place to live in
