Expand your mind and take a ride
inside your soul where you will find.
A place of peace and everlasting love
endowed by the creator from above.
The past has faded into the sand
we now look toward a better land.
A realm of justice and equality
the right of all human beings.
I know the scars of life run deep for
many have suffered like helpless sheep.
Some have had it better than others
but we must forgive all our brothers.
This planet earth is all we've got
history has taught us alot.
Hatred and enmity was never God's plan.
On Love and mercy we must stand.
The survival of our children
depends on this present race.
If we learn from our past
we'll avoid future disgrace.
The world is watching america
to see what its citizens will do.
Together let's end racism
and revive the true spirit
of the red white and blue.

Very strong message and point. Your rhyme helps the flow a little but is wordy in some places.
Thanks for entering,
