Why are we so different
When we aren't far from the same
Everyone so easily displaced
By a simple line of thought
Opinions are one of our rights
But please have a little decency
I don't expect everyone to agree with me
But at least respect my piece
And I'll always be respectful to yours

Go ahead and take my words
Put them in reverse and call them yours
Now wait and see
Did you think that was mean?
Will I be offended and flip?
Do you want me to slip?
Guess what...

I won't judge

I won't even hold a grudge

I'll respect what you said
But I'll never feel lead,
To disown or cut off
Or put our friendship in cuffs

Just all that I ask
Is you know what you say
Don't talk about life,
Like you know what it is
When there's kids out there watching
When our familys are torn
When half our friends...
