It's so hard to face   That in this day and age   Somebody's race   Could trigger somebody's rage   And somebody's preference   Can drive some total stranger   to make somebody, somehow   feel the wrath of their anger   Why were we put here?   What for? we're unsure   We sure weren't put here to hate   Be racist, be sexist   Be bigots, be sure   We won't stand for your hate   Why so cut and dry   A simple concept missed   Give tolerance a try   This confusion still exists ignorant mongers   No area's gray   Couldn't be any wronger in this age and day   Why were we put here?   What for? we're unsure   We sure weren't put here to hate   Be racist, be sexist   Be bigots, be sure   We won't stand for your hate   Now how far have we come?   How come there still are come   Who won't let come   March to the beat of a different drum   To face it, it's so hard   you must be on your guard   It's not okay   And you're not free to be a different way   Let's try to erase it, it's time that we face it   If we don't, then who will? shame on us   Let's try to erase it, it's time that we face it   Let's face it, the time is upon us
