Rushing is wrong

But sometimes

A raw reaction rules

Like when we open up honestly

And surprise all the fools

*

Fools fight truth

And plain decency

Fighting for lies

Causing pain they can’t see

Because their heads are filled with pride

And they think they know best

Embracing abuse

And misinformed ties

Never put to the test

**

Could this be me

Or could this be you?

I realize what I think

is not always true

*

I’m a fool for love

And for an off moment too

Not saying I’m off target

Sometimes it’s hard to get through

Could we get further

with better

understanding

Without hesitation to improve

Share a little more

with everything we do

**

Rushing is wrong

And reckless moves can

wreck everything

Like when we act without reason and

Mess up times in our life

*

Life finds truth

With innate empathy

Guiding more lights

Easing strain we can’t see

Together heads are filled with more might

Shared perspectives know best

Avoiding abuse and needless fights

Helping pass any test

**

This could be me

Could this be you?

I realize what I think

Sometimes makes it true

*

I want lifelong love

And for every moment too

Not saying I’m so far gone

Sometimes it’s hard to get through

Could we get further

with better

understanding

Without hesitation to show virtue

Share a little more

with everything we do
