How much longer will we kill,

for no reason, but anger?

How much longer till we are at peace,

with the world?

How much longer will men be the superior

and women on the bottom?

How much longer can sexism live,

when the rest of the world dies?

How much longer will the voice of some be heard,

the voice of others be silenced?

How much longer will gays and lesbians be mocked,

when so many of us are are in love with the same sex?

How much longer can we stand,

when so many others fall down?

How much longer will we have to fight for the right to be with who we want,

when we can't even fight for the freedom of a country?

How much longer must we wait,

till we can express ourselves without judgement? 

How much longer will we have to face judgement,

when it's not even our jobs to judge people?

How much longer can it all last?

How Much Longer?

We are all human. People say they don't judge others, but they really do.

People say they can't kill, but given certtain situation, or opoortunity, they do.

How much longer?

As long as mankind exists.

Take a class in history or something like Biology. Survival of the fittest. It is, it works, that's life.
