Two kinds of mankind

How many kinds of people walk the earth we know today

The spoken word, the coloured skin, not in that kind of way.

But how we walk among mankind on crowded streets each day

Our eyes cast down or straight ahead not once we say good day

Man’s meant to be superior to animals on earth

Yet even bears and wolves will let each other know their worth

 

Our race that has technology and sends man to the moon

Yet cannot live in peace together, cannot share a room

The fragile earth has hurricanes, lands flooded by the sea

And other places dried and parched, no crops the people see

Yet mankind does not help himself the fighting never stops

Random bombings hurt and maim in temples bars and shops

 

Two kinds of people walk this earth not sorted by their skin

They’re sorted by the way they think, their feelings from within

The hardened hearts that feel no love just hatred in their soul

Wretched beings driven by hate to kill and maim their goal

They beg and steal use drugs and deal and never give a care

They have no hope and do not love this earth that we all share

 

Others smile give praise and sing to see a newborn day

They share the little that they have to all who pass their way

They heal the earth by planting trees caring for all around

The gift of life fill up their hearts with joy, it knows no bounds

No mortal man can take away the strength of light within

Using the light from these good souls earth’s healing can begin
