Oh don’t be so sensitive 
You say like it’s a bad thing
What do you do 
Do you spend all day
Locked off and hiding 
From the feelings that you have
The good, the ugly and the bad
You don’t see how the words you say
Might make so I’ll say nothing

The words that you’re not allowed to say
In polite company
They didn’t start out that way
At some point somebody
Said, “Hey I don’t like it when you use that word
Nigger, kike, spic those words really hurt
So I’m gonna call you out when you use them
And hope that i get heard

And I know that you feel 
So defensive
I feel defensive sometimes too 
But I hope that 
If someone hurts your feelings
They’d say sorry, I will try not to hurt you

The language that you use can be 
A clue the respect 
Or lack thereof that you might have
For someone you’ve never met
And sticks and stones do break bones
So do racist cops caught on camera phones
But the epithets hurled when they’re alone
May offer up a clue as to
What’s in their heart and head 

Tell me what is in your heart
And I’ll say what’s in mine
I think humans are all the same
We just want love all the time
But in my head are thoughts so wild
And offensive they’d make Hitler smile
And if one of them becomes a word
I apologize and
