Good
A good word.
Good actions unheard.
Good thoughts and actions, don't follow the herd.
Control of your thoughts and all that you do.
Be yourself, they'll see the Good in you.
It's good for your health.
Keeps you from feeling blue.
There's no goodness in wealth, let's see who we can screw.
Every man for himself.
That's what we see in you.

A goodness defined by what we achieve.
When we see good, it helps us believe.
You can see it so clear, there's no doubt in your mind.
It's easy to see when it's bad all the time.
It's easy to spot, aside from the rot.
To be good is not common, not part of the plot.

So against the grain is the way that makes sense.
Go against the grain, you'll have recompense.
For past deeds and words, for rights and for wrongs.
Karma, the golden rule, it won't be long.
It's easy to hate, that's easy to do.
To hate and tear down and make them feel blue.
But building up is a path less traveled.
With more Good than bad, the plot soon unravels.
