You and me
Him and her
He and she
Together we are just one.

Why the gap?
Why the walls?
Why the difference?
Let's build bridges.

He said "Be careful"
She said "From males like you?"
He was speechless
Because she pointed out the truth.

Your mom says "behave decent"
"Sit like a girl"
"Talk like a girl"
But we forget " who is a girl?"

We should not raise our voices
It is deemed shameful
But teach your sons
How to be respectful

We work hard too
Why the discrimination
Is our sweat not needed
To build a better world?

Now I ask you
Who you are,what will you do?
Build a bridge
Not a wall.
