People of color, unite!
All shades of brown, from darkest to light...

We are so much the same!
No matter the skin tone, no matter the name...

We should let nothing divide!
No cultural difference, no self-centered pride...

Abolish envy and hate!
No fuel to the fire, it will soon dissipate...

Do not let arrogance rise!
Love your neighbor as yourself, see life through his eyes...

A rainbow of browns are we!
How many the hues, what variety...

Embrace the uniqueness in all!
United, we stand; divided, we fall...
