Being Good

Tired of being nice Tired of being taken for granted They say do something good Forgotten and unappreciated Do something bad They almost got it printed What's good in doing good when it doesn't seem right It's not about self-gain and whatnot Just saying that one bad thing done, makes the million good things done wasted So tell me, what's good in being that good Talents, Intelligence, they all come with a great price People support when you are beneficial They congratulate, celebrate - not a single dot and shadow were there in tribulations Its not about playing nice to please them Sometimes we are just too much tired To feel used, underappreciated, and taken for granted Let alone be the bad guy when you make mistakes Sometimes please consider that we are not AI's and generated machines For once and all We're human beings Nov. 7, 2022
