Why can’t we just throw it all away?
Just let the hate lie and not let it consume us;
I don’t see why we have to fight each other.
We are all the same inside.

The faster we realize that no man is different than any other,
The faster we can make piece.

Were all moving forward,
Toward a future worth living.
But some people are stuck in the Stone Age way of thinking.

One man is not better than another.
So why behave like it?
All man bleeds red,
So all man should be considered equal.

This is an awesome piece. It has a powerful message and is enjoyable to read. The only thing I would suggest is changing "man" to "mankind". Other than that, great job!
