This is about ending hate. About learning to accept and love anyone.
You can pray to your God,
While someone else prays for Jihad,
Both of these are wishes true,
Coming from deep down inside of you.

Open up your eyes and see,
Just how similar you are to me,
You hope your prayers take the lead,
And reach Heaven first to plant a seed,
You hope God will hear your call,
And rain fire down apon them all,
But what you don't realize,
Is that you don't see through your own eyes,
Every tiny misconception,
Is planted in you through deception,
Learn about the world you live in,
And realize just how much you've given.

Break free from these chains,
And try to force this world to change,
Only you can end this hate,
And bring the world a better fate.
