The Grass Isnt Always Greener On the Other Side
The grass isn’t always greener on the other side
Your problems seem bad but theirs are overgrown so easy to hide
You want to convert because you feel the need
You never know what their mistakes entail because you didn’t see them plant the
seed
You think their dirt is better be a little wiser
They might not be growing well for the lack of a fertilizer
They cut away too much with their knife
Did they get enough of the essence of life
Now they might sit on a useless mound
While your grass is adequate because it has good roots in the ground
So be happy with what you have and find peace and joy inside
Remember the grass isn’t always greener on the other side
