Nine Inch Nails - Another Version Of The Truth

What is the color of my skin?
if I tell you
will that determine the person I am?
If so then maybe for today
I am pink, red, green, or gray.
I am for the most part the same as you
When I am sad then I am blue.
If I call you my sister or brother,
does that have to reflect a certain color?
Our covering is a gift from the Divine,
so are you mocking this gift of mine?
Instead of judging by what you see
why don't you try looking at the inner me,
if the color of my skin
determines the person I am,
then I am invisible to you
for I am who I am.

-Mea Leann

This poem really touched me so I combined it with yet another great instrumental by Nine Inch Nails. All the pictures used in this video are copyrighted. I hope this video touches people in hope to free the world from racism.

"I hope one day you'll join us, and the world will be as one."

So, all the "hot" music right now, all the top 10 bullshit is the best form of art? If you really think that, you're incompetent. All that simple minded disposable excuse for music (Lil Wayne, Britney Spears, etc etc) is pure shit, but some people love eating shit that is fed to them from the radio and tv.

peaceful song, peaceful message.

@MorrisonHotel87 Why does it make you react that way to music other people like? Music is so diverse, man, be it The Who, be it Justin Bieber, be it The Temptations or Iron Maiden. It's all music taking on different forms, or more correctly, human expression! People just nedd to enjoy what they enjoy and let other people enjoy what they enjoy. Taste is the enemy of art.

@Xorphial "You call people bigots and defend one yourself, you say you dont want to argue yet again here we are, you make hamhanded segways into what you do with your life. The point is and always has been that you have nothing better to do than argue with people on youtube. To be honest jerking off sounds a whole lot better. Please just kill yourself."

You've not said anything you haven't already with additional justification. Once again, you describe your own self here. Bigot.
