Some People
Why do some people like to put others down
When they should be lifting others up off the ground
Why do some people speak harsh words with so much zeal
When the words they speak should help someone to heal
Why do some people spread lies and gossip that they hear
When what is said is thoughtless and insincere
Why do some people judge by the color of one's skin
When they should be looking at the soul that lives within
Why do some people take but never give
When giving may help someone to live
Why do some people always seem to complain
When joy and good things they should proclaim
Why do some people seek joy through material things
When care and kindness is what pulls the heart strings
Why do some people have hate in their hearts
When unconditional love is what they should impart
Why do some people live in a negative world
When there is so much beauty and goodness to behold
