Integrity and honor
We see society pays the cost
Simple to understand what we lost
Humanity must be reminded
What we forgot
With a clinical eye
We judge each other
Unable to see
We are sisters and brothers
Teaching indifference
That spreads one to another
Civility and courtesy we have not
We suffer because of what we forgot
Lessons learned have washed away
For many speak with nothing to say
Often we hear I feel like this or I feel like that
When is clear it’s forgiveness we have forgot
We are a world divided by geography and soil
Harvesting fruit of the world that is already spoil
We must turn one to another and see the humanity in each other
Without it we fell lost another part of what we have forgot
Looking into the eyes of the young how shall we justify what our world has become
We have all been shown a clue and we know what is the key
We must respect and restore love for all of humanity
If we are all blessed to see another day resurrection is the way
