The world could learn to understand That good is made by man Sometimes what is good for one Won’t fall into your plan
It is this very disagreement That breaks the world apart Even the smallest variance Can cause a war to start
When someone breaks the rule of right We all get up in arms How could they have done this crime And caused the world such harm?
It’s utterly outrageous! Well, to some it just may be But to others it might not be the case And they would disagree
The thief who stole the loaf of bread Has children starving back at home And the one who didn’t “get a job” Can’t afford a decent set of clothes
Even a killer, in his disarray As horrid and filled with spite, Do you think he would have done the crime? If he didn’t think it’s right?
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to condone The crimes that people do I just wonder if perhaps you might have done the same If you had lived your life in that person’s shoes
And you might say no. And I’ll believe you as that’s for what you fight Because everyone, in their own heads Is fighting for what they think is right.
