I am a Catholic.In spite of all that,
You are what you are.What are you?
I am wealthy.
I am poor.
I am a communist.In spite of all that,
You are what you are.What are you?
I am a man.
That’s what you are.
You are what you are.
In spite of your beliefs,
In spite of your money,
You are nothing but a man.
