WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DARK AND LIGHT

WHY DO YOU THINK YOU ARE SO DIFFERENT THAN I

LESS DIFFERENT AND MORE THE SAME, TWO PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PAIN

NEVER FORGET THE FACT THAT WE’RE BOTH BLACK

ME DARK AND YOU’RE LIGHT

FATE HAS SERVED US THE EXACT PLIGHT, SO WHY DO WE FIGHT OVER SOMETHING THAT IS MOT RIGHT

WHEN WE BOTH WERE ONCE TERRORIZED BY THE SAME HOODED COWARDS, WHO DID THEIR WICKEDNESS IN THE SHADOWS LIKE ROACHES IN THE NIGHT!
