Not Enough

It’s not enough to be compassionate 
It’s not enough to be kind 
It’s not enough to be empathetic 
It’s not enough to share your mind 

It’s not enough to simply be affable 
It’s not enough to show you care
It’s not enough to be respectful 
It’s not enough to have friends everywhere 

It’s not enough to be highly intelligent 
It’s not enough to forgive every wrong 
It’s not enough to be emotionally stable 
So just sing and dance to your own song
