The difference.

FT.com / World - Chimp and human DNA is 96% identical

The difference between me and a chimpanzee is only 10 times greater than the difference between me and Bill Clinton.

The difference between the rat and the mouse is 10 times greater than the difference between me and the chimpanzee.

And the masters said:

"I wanna love someone special, 'til death do us part.
To have one, and need no other.

Sometimes I cry stumbling through my youth,
'cause I love so much, yet so little."

And the masters said:

"Forever is a mountain we've yet to climb,
Tears are a part of what is yet to leave behind.
Stength in numbers all you need is two,
Everyone's a winner while still so many lose.

We are finding who we are.
We can see forever.

The volume of emotion erupting in our souls,
A quiet revelation quickly takes a-hold.
Patience is a virtue but she won't always wait,
Decention is the tension we always learn to hate."

And the masters said:

"If your back is pinned against the wall and the stress is killing you.
and the cross you carry on your back makes it hard for you to move.
in yourself believe - it's alright.
in yourself believe - you're alright

if you ran away to loose your soul and you're scared to death you're wrong
if you're past the point of turning back and your innocence is gone.
in yourself believe - it's alright
in yourself believe - you're alright

if it's something that you can't forget that somebody did to you
if you're past the point of feeling down then there's nothing left to prove.
in yourself believe - it's alright
in yourself believe - you're alright

in yourself believe
it's alright
in yourself believe
you're alright

believe in yourself
it's alright it's alright

believe in yourself
it's alright it's alright

you see, when i grew up, i grew up in the church
and they told me to believe in God - they said to believe in Jesus
and then others told me to believe in Krishna
somebody else said to believe in Bhudda
then they said the Indian religion
then they said to believe in The President of the United States
then they said to believe in The United States of America
they said believe in everybody but myself

but i wanna tell you people
if you don't believe in yourself you ain't got shit to believe in.
believe in yourself.

now the media will tell you there's something wrong with you
they'll say you're too tall, you're too short, you're too fat or too skinny
your eyes are the wrong color, your hair is the wrong color,
they say blondes have more fun.
they say your tits are too small
and your dick is too small
and they want you to fix yourself.

people, there's nothing wrong with you!
there's nothing wrong with you!
there's nothing wrong with anybody in here!

and i wanna tell you about this thing called "fear"
the United States of America is dying because of fear.
we're afraid of everybody
we're afraid of terrorism, we're afraid of Mexicans coming up
we're afraid of Haitians coming into this land
we're afraid of everything
we are built upon fear
we have guns - more guns than anybody else
we kill each other - we hate each other - we fight each other
this is America.

wake up!

we're alright you're alright!"
