Let’s start the race!

I live in a country where

we are still defined by our race.

Some say,

it’s to preserve our own culture and heritage.

But I beg to differ as

over the years had caused much

discrimination and discord.

And those in authority are

killing our spirits

with their on-going rhetoric

for popularity and votes.

We need to see ourselves as 

one nation, one human race.

Let us join our hearts together

to push for change 

no matter how difficult

or long it may take

for the sake of our children

and future generations.

The time is now, my friends.

Let’s start the race today!
