We are one



My blood is red
Yours not blue
Then why there is distinction
Between me  and you

You boast of your pearl
You count your gem
You make it a media
To classify men

But listen oh foolish
Adam's son
A time will come
When we will be one

For when you die
Like me you will go
Wrapped in a cloth
From head to toe
