Verse 2:
Maurice: How do I really describe this/ Evil practice/ called Injustice/ Fact of the Matter is/South or the West or the Middle East/ Stereotypes are the Engines/ Running these Evil Systems/ look at the victims/ Suffering unrealistic/Criticism, Witticism/ this the reason/ there is Racism/ Prejudice / which pains like Rheumatism/ this is an evil Thesis/ that leads to discrimination/ After the Discrimination, Formation is the conception/ of an Oppression/ an operation/that generates segregation/ we gata stop the Separation/ with Love & Peace the Contraception (**action plan**)/ before it leaks/ to the next generation/ coz through 1 man God made all the Nations/ Europe, Asia/ & the next Generations/ if we don’t stop this situation/ we gon see more evil demonstrations/ like 6 Million Jews in the Concentration/ now just take a moment of silence/ think of the violence/ do you really desire this/ evil Goliath/ we need to form forces that fight against this/ system that is penetrating/ perpetuating of injustice is as good as perpetrating the injustice that is generating/ so stop perpetuating & start participating/ in the change making!

Martha: [Oneness is our greatness/ Division is our weakness/ Forge a new Malawi, Africa nad the World Where People live in peace] x 2

Finale:
Allan: We have heard how stereotypes create tensions, which slip societies into major strifes. The Rwanda and Darfur Conflict remind us of the great danger of when stereotypes become emphasized. Unfortunately for us, we tumbled out of the womb and stepped into a drama already underway. However, it is our responsibility to challenge this established system. We are called upon to bear witness and keep leaning in the direction of honest expression that challenges stereotypes. Let us nudge our country, our continent, and our world towards meaningful life, liberty, justice, and peace for every individual. Let us do this for the sake of our children, grandchildren and the generations unborn. They say time brings about change and we therefore need to be vigilant as true warriors; we have to muster enough courage and make long term commitment for this is a marathon, not a sprint. With time and energy, we will succeed in creating a society that where individuals celebrate differences while emphasizing the common human denominator, which is we are all human beings.
