Sweet Tea

Everyone likes their sweet tea a certain way,
like their ma or grandma made it,
some like to stand as they drink it,
and others like to sit.

I like my sweet tea with lots of sugar,
and plenty of ice,
not enough to make it give me a bad brain freeze,
but enough to suffice.

I like to have my sweet tea with friends,
or family, outside on a hot summer day,
when you're talking about something funny,
and you don't have much to say.

I guess people are like sweet tea, if you think 'bout it,
we all are different, unique, yet the same,
so why do we treat each other as lesser?
Is that how we're gonna play the game?

I like my sweet tea, sweet,
I like my sweet tea cold and refreshing as I drink.
but do we ever,
even stop to think?

Why don't we all love sweet tea?
