Social Justice Poem

We live in a world where Social Justice can be achieved
Some people Just choose not to or just not to try
Freedom is hard to overcome
Thats because not everyone is considered equal
Also their is a big difference between people having advantages and disadvantages in a society
Because of that their are levels of Justice
Alot of people dont know why everyone is not considered equal
I guess it is just complicated
And some people just view it a different way
And thats why social justice is hard to achieve
