Forcing Beliefs

There are alot of serious debates,
Not trying to offend,
Excuse me if I do,
Why can't we all just be open minded,
And think outside the box.

We are all different races,
Who cares if your black or white,
Slavery was in the past,
Some where even white,
You don't really learn about that.

Really think about it,
We are all still slaves,
Slaves to our government,
Breaking backs to make a living,
While they all sit in thrones,
Watching all the struggle,
As we follow all the rules.

Then you have the gender thing,
There are separate bathrooms for a reason,
To keep our women and children safe,
Think about it for a second,
We are only opening that door,
For that one crazy person,
To use it as their advantage.

Boys have periods too,
That's what they teach in school,
Excuse me sir, explain to me,
What it feels like to bleed,
For a whole week,
Dealing with the cramps,
The feeling of knives in your stomach,
So much more than that.

Here's a touchy subject,
The whole abortion thing,
So many mixed feelings,
How is it our business,
What they decide to do.

This is only my opinion,
Some of you may agree,
As others will not,
Read between the lines,
What I'm really trying to say,
How is it right?
To force someone in your beliefs.

Just be your own person,
Let others be their selves,
Believe in what you want,
Make your own life choices,
Live a happy life,
Let others do the same.
