No one or nobody has a perfect past.
So why be shocked or hurt?
When they are hit by scandals?

Oh, remove their statue.
Remove their name from the buildings.
And rightly so, some should be eradicated.

Just remember, among all the protests that you're also judging yourself.
So let review the notations and the cameras.

Did you scam someone?
But didn't get caught.
Did you abuse your spouse?
And yes, the fools intimidated to prosecute you.
Because if they have?
You are the face of a news story.

Now. if you abusing a child or violated a lover?
You deserve all the HELL coming to you.
And if you're still in college protesting and riding the waves of controversial matters of the moment.

Realize this?
Nobody has a perfect pass and yours have yet to start

Did you commit a crime?
When to court?
And got convicted rightly so for it.

Why?
Went behind bars you're complaining?

I can't get the phone?
They got rules to adhere similar to a free society that was governing you.

I miss my family.
Sound good but you miss them more, now you've been label a classic fool.

I miss my kids.
Well, really?
Then think about the episode that places you where you now serving time?

The food is not good.
Well, why should it really be?
You had better options when you were free?

Some guards/officers are mean. Similar to those friends that might have placed you there.

I never wonder.
I never doubt it.
Cause I know love, exists.
Because it exists in us.

I have seen rage.
I have seen hate.
But  I know love exists.
Because it exists within us.

Yes, it does.
Yes, it does.

When it seems to have faded?
Somehow it emerges just at the time you need it.

Yes, it does.
Yes, it does.
When it comes to unselfish love.

So never have I wonder(about it)
And never have I doubt it(not once)
Cause I know love, exists.
Because it exists in us.

Each second, each minute, each hour.

In need of hugs.
In need of love.
Just to be told, you're overqualified.

Then, if I give up?
I will be told I'm not trying enough.

So I apply more.
Well, until I'm the lucky one.

Because, you can't be overqualified to love.

You be the sun.
Radiating with warmth.

I be the moon.
Filled, with hints of romance.

We, float around on the airwaves to romance.
Without, even a moment of a thought, we break into a lovely dance.

Like, we are in a hypnotic trance.

So, you upset?
Yes, by something I said.
It's my opinion and nothing more.

Okay, it might be about race.
Might have been a ****** comment.
But daily, we hear comments about presidents.

When?
It gets to the point where I must bite my tongue.
I guess we are becoming a country that deletes freedom from some.

Whew-of things to eventually come.

You heard, what Kelly did?
You heard, what Cosby has done.
Even, Epstein myth, truth allegations, we quick to speak,

But when it comes to negative against us?
We want to run and hide our heads.
Because we all have something hidden in the shadows.

Some are myths.
Some, are allegations.
Then some are true.

Watch, who you talk about?
And especially to who?
