Kalyn Harewood - Humanity

I am not like you in a way
Melanin saturates the hues of my skin
My skin, my skin
As it does not to yours

But only in this are we different
for beneath our contrasting shades we are the same
Alike at the very core of ourselves, alike in our
Humanity,
Humanity,
Humanity
So where is your humanity

Pigmentation is not a jury or judge
Though on it they constitute executions of us,
of us, of us
And they would call it just

But only in skin are we different
For beneath our contrasting shades we are the same
Alike at the very core of ourselves, alike in our
Humanity,
Humanity,
Humanity

They admit the worth of all lives
But omit the inclusion of mine
They say that they are colorblind
Dismissing parts of our lives
Refusing to recognize
Life is made of all color and size

I am not like you in a way
But we're both human, just the same
