Hated Without Racism Blues

Why is it the people
judge by the looks?
Why is it the people
judge by the looks?
Some people are friendly
some people are not.
But all of these people
hurt each other bad.

Why is it the people 
judge by the looks?

Why is it the people 
Judge by the looks?

Oh! why is it that we're in pain.
Why must we see people with judgement.
Why not just treat each other the same.

Oh! why do people
judge by the looks?
Why do people 
judge by the looks?
why when we're walking
down by the streets
there's no respect
when we walk free.
People these days have no judgement.
No love, no rights, no respect.

Why do these people 
judge by the color?

Why do these people
judge by the color?
why can't we see
the best in the other.
You might be American, Hispanic or Black.
But all of these people treat each other bad.
Sometimes is the color, sometimes is the race.
Sometimes is the way
We walk and we play.

We're hated for looks
and hated for faith.
We're hated for looks
and hated for faith.
But there is no racism
we're equal I say!

It doesn't mean you have the right to make fun of me.
Neither it means you can put stuff on it.
And it doesn't mean yours is better.

Just because my hair gets messy
doesn't mean it's worst than yours
Doesn't mean you should look at mines before yours.
And it definitely doesn't mean you Shouldn't...

Ode To my Grand-daddy

Though I never me him
He was so sweet.
I know him from all the stories
My father told me.
It's amazing in so little time
I've learned a lot about this guy.
He worked for hours and long days.
But still he had time to come and play.

On every Birthday he went to the store
And bought a cake with much love.
The food was expensive and so were the clothes.
But he still came with something small.
His kids weren't happy
Because of the war
But with his protection
They managed to go.
One almost died...
