It'S MoRe ThAn ThE CoLoR Of My SkIn, MoRe ThAn ThE World I'm In

YoDaPoe

I Am Comfortable In My Own Beautiful Brown Skin

The Same Skin That Makes Others Uncomfortable With Me Being In

Do To Confusion, Uncertainty, Power Of The Mind Manipulations By The Unknown Personally, The TV Especially

Through The Human Eyes, Which You See, Do Not Judge, If You Do Not Know The Person That Comes In Contact Who You Be

We All Have Feelings Just As Human Beings

You Light Skin, I'm Brown Skin, We So Different, But How That's Not Saying Anything

It Seems You Forget, We Learn, And Need Each Other More Than You Think

We Learn More From One Another Than Any School Or University

But Education Is Important, Communication Is Key

To Unlock Doors To The Future Which You Seek

The Mind Is Very Powerful, Just Like The Words You Speak

Some Listen, Some Understand, Some Turn The Other Cheek

People Don't Realize We Are All Connected In Our Daily Lives, Everyday You Breath

You Go To The Doctor, To School, To Work, The Grocery Store, The Library

Put Trust In Others, Who You Do Not Know, Not Your Family, But Society

Yet You Have Racism, You Have Hatred, You Have Misunderstandings Of The Very People You Need

We Tend To Disagree, More Than We Tend To Agree

Our Energy Travels Fast, Especially Negative, Seems More So Coming Than Positive Energy

Seems People Are More Into The Television Screen, Than There Own Life Reality

Money Is A Need, A Want, A Factor, A Disaster, A Tool, That Can Not Fix Anything That Really Matters

Besides Financial Stability, Not Love, Respect, Support, Or Loyalty

Makes One Think To The Self, What Do The World Really Want From Me

Heart Of Love, Heart Of Hatred, Heart Of Experience

Don't Judge Me, Because Just Like You, This Is A Lifetime I Was Born In

I Will Make Mistakes In The Process Of Living The Best I Can

As I Grow From Who I Was, To Who I Am, As I Continue To Become Who I Want To Be

On This Journey I Live The Life That Was Given To Me
