” Though i’m hopeful, YES I AM. Hopeful for TODAY, take this [poem] and use it and let it take you away, and be hopeful, HOPEFUL and He’ll make a way. I KNOW it aint easy, but…that’s okay just be HOPEFUL”.- Twista

Sigma, intolerance, ignorance entrenched within society b4 and within this century…

The stigma, intolerance and ignorance between ebony and ivory.

Decades of pain, hatred, revenge based on the colour of one’s skin…

When will we realise that the worth of a person is measured by what resides within.

Through all this, all we have is hope.

Yet, the feasibility of interracial tolerance is almost as difficult as getting one voice between the Imam and the Pope…

Through all this, all we have is hope.

Suicidal thoughts purged through the strength of hope…

At times hope is all we have to get us by, to help us cope.

Just two people together, nothing more nothing less…

Darker/ Lighter pigmintation should never be basis for one to be deemed less.

Yet, silent stares, condemnation and societal mumbling…

It’s 2011, and after all the bullshit in this world there is still racially charged grumbling.

Through all this all we have is hope.

Ebony and ivory live together in perfect harmony….? really…? no, really?

Through all this, all we have is hope.

Fuelling our dreams, easing the hurt, HOPE is all we need.

Maybe one day we’ll see division in the eyes of Stevie Wonder.

All I have is hope but I can’t help but wonder.
