Quatrain- Lets All Agree to Disagree

Let's all agree to disagree
Our skin tones differ in shade
Our opinions differ widely
We are all homo-sapiens

Your faith is not the same as mine
Let's all agree to disagree
You pursue your faith in your way
Allow me to follow my ways

You say success is about cash
I say it is about kindness
Let's all agree to disagree
I'll help the poor while you fund me

You live in a nice area
I have no home I live no where
Spare a few bucks for a warm meal
Let's all agree to disagree


Authours note 
I really wish I could have used this whole statement in the poem... Let's all agree to disagree and leave each other in peace"... if you have a suggestion about where I might put that second half of the line I would really appreciate it
As the name might suggest this form consists of four, four line stanzas. 
As is typical of French forms there is a Refrain, but what is unusual is that there is no rhyme sequence specified. The Refrain is the first line of the first stanza, which becomes the second line of the second stanza, the third line of the third stanza and finally the last line of the last stanza.
As is normal with French poetry it consists of eight syllable lines with no meter specified.
