Be the Savior

(This is the raw, uncut, and unedited version)

You’re the one who stepped on their race
Tried to put them in their place
Hate fuels your motivations just because of an imbalance
Why did you choose to pick on this one, the one who can’t be saved?
You pass through the halls with a push to the pack,
And a remark that sails straight through their veins and into their hearts
The hate that you showed them,
Could one day erupt into a massacre of rabid emotions
While this is just one case, there’s still many more
Why cast an individual for his race, face, or creed
Maybe everyone can look a little deeper,
Save others from this haste
It’s become a senseless diversion from life
Just to put others down for some intangible credibility
What’s the difference, even if their not your friend,
Maybe you’re just a bystander,
So take their hand, take them under your shadow
And salvage them from the adversity
Shelter their heart with yours
Put the violence, hate, and distaste to a waste
Help others from the bone shattering crushes to the skull
Or the derogatory call to a race,
Stop those who relish in the disperse of hate,
And those who relay its simple-minded decadence
And save even those who faces you may not know

SIMPLY INCREDIBLE

This piece is definitely a piece that requires some thought to try and acquire a solid understanding of. My own interpretation is that it is telling bullies and not only that, but people who harass those different than them to say "Hey, wait a second here, I'll be on your side and protect you", and i believe the piece portrays that message very well.
