Usurpation; we're so far from what we say
Talk is cheap and we're further indebted each day
"Christian", because it's what we're supposed to be
But the person to my right could be different than me.

We're supposed to cast our eyes aside
Yet you judge the moment they don't conform
I want Islam and Buddhist and Us, side by side
While you refuse to let precious pride be torn.

Bound to my virtues, I stand for this
For forgiveness and acceptance and love above all
So myself, I'll not judge by color of skin
I'll never call you "one of them".
