I Try To Tell One Lie In

There's A Lot Of Music Nowadays With People Singing About How Amazing Their Clothes Are And How Incredible Their Shoes Are And How Much Jewelry They Might Be Wearing Or How Much Jewelry They Want, How Much Money They Have And The Club That They're In And The Alcohol That They're Drinking.

No Matter Whether You Are Black Or White, Man Or Woman, Gay Or Straight, Christian, Muslim, Or Jew, We All Share The Same Emotions, The Same Human Condition.
