RESPECT

RESPECT

Ray Finch

 

I don’t have any stories to tell

For I don’t want to bore you to hell

That was then and this is now

And both our lives just don’t gel

Your beliefs values and time

Are nowhere near the same as mine

Life changes, what I enjoyed was good

But the test of time it’s just not stood

As people change in every nation

Life then changes for each generation

Who is wrong and who is right

It’s no matter they still will fight

In my footsteps you once stood

Now making your own as you should

I know it’s hard talking to one other

But we really should, tolerate each another

Yes you are young and I am old

And I know you won’t be told

But what I’ve known and seen is good

So respect for me should be understood

Treat me right and listen to me

Even though you don’t agree

This sermon ends here and now

as we will find a way

Somehow!
