I’m starting to take notice.
I’m starting to see, that you can’t take people lightly.
What may be bad for me, may be good for you.
What you may think is true, I might find a fluke.
I am going to try to not judge people so much, because I don’t know much about them.
Or about their home, if they even have that, they may be all alone.
I don’t know if they’ve ever had to sleep in the cold.
Or if they were abused, and still experience the trauma, now that they’re old.
I don’t know if you suffer from mental instability and maybe grew up thinking all meds were the enemy.
I don’t know sh*t about you, just like you don’t know sh*t about me.
And this is why I don’t want to take people lightly.
Some are bad and some are good.
And some are just plain misunderstood.
Some will try to manipulate you, even when you thought they never could.
Therefore, taking people lightly, it’s a serious matter.
Some people you will never reach, even with the tallest ladder.
But do I have a right to sit and judge you?
Not when I don’t know half of the sh*t you have been through.
