We Are the Same - Useless Intolerance

I am you in my body

can’t you see?

sound the pensive trumpet

unchain prison of your mind

take a stand for humanity

I am you in my body

a single tear from a waxen candle

straightening the rhymes of imbalance

a reality nailing fools to trees

awakening human soul to acceptance

I am you in my body

rescuing sun in drowning sea

spreading wings of tolerance

smiting falsehoods strung

in twisted breaths of hate

I am you in my body

reinforce my head with glue

pile fairness in piles of bricks

acceptance warms barren echoes,

pitches out useless privilege

I am you in my body

lean closely to me to see

open heart in sweeping tides

let our voices be heard

eagles soar – we are the same.
