Learn Their Story...
As small kids were we told to not judge a book by its cover?
But still the ugly truth continues to hover
Even though we were raised not to
Many people still do
You look at the little girl in the tattered dress
And think I can't be her friend, she's a mess
We have a little boy with greasy hair because his family can't afford to keep the water on
And it never even seems to dawn
On the other children that their appearance mite not be their fault
But the bad feelings this never seems to hault
And then when we get older some grow out of this terrible habit greatly enough
But some teenagers only seem to care about material stuff
They judge by what you wear and what you have in hand
But if you dont have it to them you are just bland
They call You names and say cruel things, leaving you in a smoke screen of tears and dust
Instead of making them cry or making them hate themselves you should just...
Learn their story before you judge
And not on their self confidence trudge....
