Reality CHECK
People are people
We all make mistakes
We all push the limits
Of what we can take
And let me tell you
It ain’t real
It ain’t fake
We just go our own way
Do what we do
And most people don’t understand
Just what we go through
And they don’t understand
These insanity of things!
Cause people are people
We all make mistakes
We all went there
Done that
Maybe we shouldn’t have
Because 1 thing leads to another
Weather we’re sister or brother
That 1 place we shouldn’t have went
Because now they don’t talk to you
And you’re confused on what to do
And you ask why the sky is blue
And you think that you can fly
The laws of gravity you can defy
And all you want to do is cry
Cause no matter how hard you try
People are people
There’s so much we can take
Before we just fall apart and break
Just like the girl at the back of the class
Who had to look through 2 pieces of glass
The words that were shouted and screamed
She covered her ears
But those words bleed through
The burden above her head
They told her she was better off dead
Those words that were said
Stuck to her like glue
And she decided to do
The unspeakable thing
And if only they knew
Just what their words could do
Cause that girl grew wings
And flew
All that pain that she hid
Just by all the things that we did
People are people
Some lives that we take
Like that boy behind bars
Cause he took it too far
He didn’t mean to
Just his mama got mad
And things got bad
And all he had left
Was the gun in his hand
And that was the day he went from a boy
To a man
But he just can’t stand
To look at that man
In the mirror
And we’re as people are people
We made those mistakes
Gone the distance
Took what we can take
And these words that I’m saying
No screaming
They may have no meaning
But take a look closer
Cause you may see
How this is me!
And I don’t care if you don’t like what you see
So stop and consider
I don’t judge you by what you seem
So how dare you go and judge me.
