With, a weapon, you stand there.
Multiple of you.
But ask yourself?
Are you that tough?

With no weapons, they protested in the fifties and sixties and still have a better image.
Simply by using voices and singing.

With your voices, you spit out hatred.
With their voices, they spoke of love.
For the whole world to see.

Ask yourself?
Are you that tough?

With a strong force of bigotry.
You tossed out various epithets.
Even had the high power racist judges and jury support.

With simple scriptures, they marched.
So ask yourself with the truth?
Are you that tough?

In modern times, a few have changed.
In modern times, the group you hated has the most rage.
For the whole world to see?
