Changing times

Times are changing
People are too
It’s sad world we live in
I firmly believe that
To be true
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So many people seem to lie
And manipulate
So many people
Are filled with jealousy
And hate
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here lately
I seem to have found,
so many people
Who with what they do,
and say
Make me wear
A frown
Nearly everyday
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Friends to your face
Then start talking,
behind your back
Sorry I just don’t have time,
in my life
For people like that
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Seems some people think
They are special
And that stand above all
Well remember
The higher you stand
The further
You fall
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Some people think
They have power
And they get the final say
You won’t have many friends
Acting that way
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
But the people,
who bug me the most
Who just get under my skin
Are the ones who think
They are better,
than everyone else
I think vanity is a sin
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I don’t care if your rich
Or you’re a movie star
I don’t care,
of you’re a millionaire
And drive a fancy car
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
They does not,
make you special
Nor better than anyone else
You still put on your pants
The same as we all do
One leg at a time
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Money nor power ,
does not make you
It’s what you have
Inside
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Some of the most,
beautiful people
On the outside
Can be so ugly inside
Looks and money,
are not everything
You can’t buy
What you hold
Inside
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yes
I’ve even seen,
some of these people
Walking these starlite halls
Thinking,
they are better than other’s
And they are above
Us all
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
One day your wall may crumble
And you may fall flat on your face
I hope you will still have friends
Who will be by your side
To help you stand
After your big fall
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
But never forget
You are the one
Who
Caused your wall and yourself
To fall
Thinking you were better
Than us
All
