MY BROTHERS MY SISTERS



My brothers my sisters
Not of blood
But of the soul and of the mind
Together, sharing and gaining knowledge

My brother
Is the man with no home
On the streets cold
My sister
Is the woman abused
Hurt on the inside
Bruised on the outside

My brother
Is the man on top of the hill
Consumed by his greed for all things
My sister
Is the woman who can't see
Other people's needs

My brother
Is the man who hides
Within his hate
My sister is the woman
Who praises that hate

My brother
Is the man
Who gives a guiding hand
My sister
Is the woman
Who is a mother to all

My brothers, my sisters
Are all of the human race
We are a family
Living in this house called earth
