Does it still matter?

That's what I ask myself everyday

As I watch the children play

Does it still matter?

Whether we are black or white

Asian or Hispanic

Native American or Islamic

Does it still matter?

No

That's not the question I should be asking

No

Why did it matter in the first place

Being judged by the pigment of our skin

Preventing us from seeing that the color of us all is only

Skin deep

Skin deep, I say

Not to the heart or the soul

The soul of you and I

Does it still matter?

Does it still matter?

Do we need this underlying hatred

This swelling of darkness overcoming our souls

Or land and out children

Does it still matter?

Why did it ever matter?

To whom is it important to?

Surely not me or you?

Because it only goes skin deep

Skin deep I say

SKIN

Why is there a care for the color of our skin,

Why is there a care for the color of our skin,

when we bleed the same color

when we breath the same oxygen

we are truly just mutations of each other,

yet we act as though we are different, when we are truly

All just the

SAME

Does it still matter?

Whether we are black or white

Asian or Hispanic

Native American or Islamic

Does it still matter?

No

Truly, its all in our minds this
