Lets Face It

Well, 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

Now, why so cut and dry?
A simple concept missed
Give tolerance a try and 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

Get that straight!

Now, how far have we come?
How come there still are some
Who won't let some 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

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

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

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
