Why?

Why is it that people think your not smart until your old

Why is it that people say you have to be popular to be bold

Why is it that people tell you not to worry about how you look

And tell you not to judge the cover of a book

Yet if your not smart, fun or cool

They treat you like and ignorant fool

And even if your pretty or fun

And you have a bright mind that shines like the sun

They think you to be TO bold TO smart TO pretty TO energetic

They are jealous and it is you they pick

To exclude, to make fun, to make you feel down

It is then that you feel as tho you should leave the town

WHY? WHY? WHY? Its all I want to know

Why is no one happy, and free to grow

Why do we judge and stare

Why do people judge us and act like a poked bear

Why are we mean to our friends that we love

Why do we act like we're perfect as a dove

Can't we all just be nice for one minute?!

But no, because we all feel the need to win it!

But life is not but a game to be won!

Its a gift and we only get one

Its not about being the most funny, pretty, smart, or cool

Why are we all being so stupid, like a fool

Life is a blessing a gift a grace, from the perfect being above

He's a spirit a father a son, in the form of a beautiful dove
