Perspective
It’s amazing to think about the possibilities of the world I live in
The way its seen through another’s eyes
their perspective
Certain things excite some people
others have different images of people than others
Because of perspective
You never know how much a kind word could mean to someone
The fact that someone not related to them cared enough to tell them how great they are.
But we never think of it like that because of one thing
Perspective
We don't know what others are going through
All we’re focused on is the now
Just because we approach them at the wrong time
We think that they behave like that all the time
So now, We have a pre-conceived notion about them
And that changes the way we behave
We don't see it from their perspective
This is why I can’t hate those who’ve done wrong
It’s how they were raised
They didn't have parents, or the ones they did have didn't care
No one was there to tell them how wrong it was
Those who were raised to believe in a tyrannical ideal
Who am I to condemn them because of who raised them?
maybe I would’ve been like that or worse in their situation
I don't know their perspective
The only ones who should be condemned
Are those who are among the righteous
But still reject the right and follow the wrong
And no matter how many chances they get
They never change their ways
It all leads to this
Don't automatically judge others
think of what they could be dealing with
what they had to go through
Think about it from their perspective, and maybe you would’ve acted the same way.
