People will be people,
I see them all around.
They seem to have a role to play,
to encourage,to command,to judge or put you down.
You think you're better than them,
they think they're way up there.
You have that much to say,
they think they're way too good to care.

I say, people will be people,
they play their role so well.
It's as if they have all the time
to judge you even for awhile.
As if they couldn't bear the good,
that's befalling over you.
They'll tell you,
"Oh, I've been there,done that, nothing new."

Well,that's why people will be people,
each soul for their own.
You'd imagine why this world's together apart,
perhaps our action's been condone.
We pretend with hands united,
but really, are we one?
We people will be people,
it cannot be undone.
