I don't know about you, but my parents always taught me to love
And never judge a book by its cover
Or a man by his turban
I was taught that gay or straight
Never hate a man for who he was born to be
I was taught that just because one dog bites your neck
Doesn't mean the entire dog species is evil
I was taught to lend a helping hand when I saw somebody in need
I wasn't taught about religion or nationalities
But rather I was taught about humanity
And how no matter the size or color of skin
We all have a heart that beats in the same way
And desires in the same way
And a soul that is longing for love in the same way
I was taught not to hate, but rather to understand
I was taught to yearn to learn
I was taught to speak with love
And keep hate far from my tongue
I wasn't taught to be American or Christian
I was taught to be human
And I was taught that it doesn't matter where you were born
Or who you bow your head down to at night
We are all one and the same
Human
