Are We So Different

We come from diverse cultures and different upbringings

Some listen to Hip Hop others straight up country singing

But don't we all want peace of mind, a brighter future

  and to spend more time

with the ones we love, and the things we like

We want food in our bellies and a warm bed at night

I don't know, maybe I missed it

But my question is,

Are we so different

I mean, I know our politics make us scream and shout

And all the ish we're fed, we use to call each other out

But don't we deserve to live a life that's free,

from religious persecution and demagoguery

I don't know, maybe I'm twisted

but the question still remains

Are we so different

So different that we are willing to justify

 innocent people being accused of an insidious lie

So different because we don't share the same views 

on every little thing, so we fall for a ruse

I don't know, maybe our values have shifted 

but, seriously, people

Are we really that ( F*cking ) different
