Color Blind

There is a world I search for
A world I try to find
I'm searching for a world
A world that's color blind

Where race, it has no meaning
Where skin it does not show
Where people learn acceptance
Is a world I'd love to know

Where I can see your soul
When I look into your face
Without the focus directed
On what we name the race

Where beauty defines itself
In an array of many shades
Where the people join together
And the colors start to fade

Where the shades they lose their value
And more importance then is placed
On qualities more relevant
Something beyond race!

No more hate! -I'm begging...
Let no more cruelty reign!
Stop the faces soaring
In an ocean filled with pain!

Race will have no baring
On what we do and say
And, people stop the caring
On the colors we display

Where is this place I search for?
I search, I hunt, I plead
Where is this place I long for?
I cry, I fall, I bleed!

Because, the spirit inside matters
The soul that should shine bright-
For this to shine right through
I know that we must fight

Until the very end
We'll fight 'till the last breath
To stop the hate from spreading
We must fight 'till nothing is left!
