Honesty, Truth and Fairness

in today's very modern hi-tech world
good morals don't matter anymore
you see why the world's such a mess
morality treated as rubbish left on floor

throughout my life I've tried to
be honest always with everyone
when you do you receive respect
people come to you they don't run

Truthfulness is such a rare commodity
in a world where lies seem to lead
be truthful always and at all times
fill your mind with God's truth so to read

So much injustice around in society
unfairness is so prevalent to abound
try to be fair in our relationships
then more good friends will be found

Honesty truth and fairness
keep them in your top pocket
hold them close so skintight
secretly hide them to lock it
