Make a Stand In the Face of Injustices and Wrongs

Never be afraid to speak the truth Never be afraid to point out wrongs But accept that other may not agree But that doesn't mean you should back down on what you perceive But always listen to all sides With open an mind and eyes, Then you have all the knowledge that you need to decide Whether what you believe it is wrong or right, Never be too inflexible or ever deny That you got it wrong and you failed to see the other side But don't be bullied or cajoled when right To ever back down be strong and shine a light On injustices and acts that are just wrong And never be afraid to make a stand and be strong, For it's the only way to create a fair and righteous world It's the only way to put an end to suffering, So always point out wrongs And never be afraid You just need to be brave.

Oh I like this. Thing is, there is a difference in pointing out and belittling, standing up for and bullying. Your verse is inspirational to do the right thing. Some right things get lost in the wrong delivery... Well done!
