DANCE

People are proud

They love when you look up to them

They can hate when you look across the table

They hate more when they look up you

So my child

People will hate on you

Not because you are that bad

Sometimes they are afraid that you will look at eachother across the table

Maybe because they will look up to you

If you fail my child

It is not because of your colour or sex

It is not because they hate on you

It is because of you 

My child

It is hard for a person of our race to break through

At home or abroad

But people have made it through

And have turned out better than diamonds

So you know who you are

Not how people look at you

If a pink panther can dance more than a hating human

It is better anyway and it will not matter in a free world

So dance and don't blame the slippery floor

Turn your waist the best you can even if you have no shoes

Swing like a god even if your butt is bare

Do your best let the world sleep with its care

Dance if that is all you can offer
