Keepin it Real

By Michelle Holt

for Ms. Carolyn T. Lowery

It aint about the color of your skin

it's the color of your heart that matters

there aint nothing wrong with the way you look

there is something right with what's inside

how is your heart?

so you know how to feel?

Do you love one another keeping it real?

It aint about the way you look

its the pages inside- that make up the book

It's not all about you anymore!

It's about time that you looked at that deep inner core

there is something right with what's inside

How is your heart?

so you know how to feel?

Do you love one another keeping it real?

It aint about who is looking at you

It's what's inside that speaks what you do

don't look for thanks or grace or reward

It's about time you learned that life means more

How is your heart?

So you know how to feel?

Do you love one another keeping it real?
