Poem
This life so unbalanced It makes you laugh Hysterical feelings Beyond the pail, beyond the fail Where people you know Who committed their fair share of sins But any you make they're never forgiving And how poor downtrodden people Who may have made mistakes with alcohol and crack Are never given opportunities to come back Yet those of wealth and those of power Who fall down the same way Are pardoned their mistakes and go on to be great It would be really funny if it wasn't so unfair An unbalanced life where only a few care And where those who've made similar mistakes to you Spin it and talk as if they've always been true And forget what they've done And focus on others A form of distractions to keep their past deeds undercover Me I am flawed and yes I've made mistakes I own my own sins and repent everyday Without getting pious or holier than thou I never judge anyone of that I've avowed Except hypocrites and those who seek to put others down I find it hard to take their two faces Without being irked and showing a frown Everybody that owns what they've done Has the right to be forgiven Especially if the are doing right by repenting And accept the responsibility for all of their deeds And accepted their punishment where there is a need But what hope is there for humanity If there is one rule for them and another for me What chance for anyone is forgiveness is only ever given To those of class and position And denied to those who are lowly And defined as hopelessly riven within a different position Hypocrisy is the greatest of all sins Do not fall into it and judge who gets forgiven.
