I Am Not You and You Are Not Me

I always want to be good and not bad But sometimes I have to be bad Each and every one of us know what is right But how do we execute the right? That’s is why I am not you I always want to be white and not black But sometimes I have to be grey So you don’t have to judge me Circumstances of thing demanded for it That is why we are not the same If people are going to be the same Since genesis God wouldn’t have created male and female We would have just be the same Why can’t everyone be like me? No, it’s not possible! Universe will be boring and monotonous And there won’t we be variety That is why we are not the same If you can’t take me for whom I am I bet you, you can’t find another person like me Because we are not the same We are different, so that we can complement each other Just like bread and beans I’m not saying you shouldn’t ‘correct me’ But know that we can never be the same I am not you and you are not me Because my name is different from yours I am not you and you are not me Because my age is different from yours I can be introvert and you can be extrovert I am not you and you are not me Because my face is not the same as yours I am not you and you are not me Because my voice is not the same as yours Then why do you expect our character to be the same? The best, we can do is to harmonize each other That is why I need you and you need That is why I need your bread and you need my beans That is why I need your love and you need my peace That is why I need your courage and you need my strength That is why I need your music because I can dance That is why I need your prayer and you need my fasting That is why I’m say this because you need to listen I am not you and you are not me But we can synchronize each other!
