When I was little, my mother told me,
"Someday, you’re going to meet bad people."
But I didn’t believe her
Because Jesus loves everyone
And He died for our sins
So now we’re good.

But then I got older.
And I saw the world.
And I realized.
That some people suck.

Some people are mean,
Just to be mean.
Some people lie to you,
Just to lie to you.
Some people hurt you,
Just to hurt you.
Some people are evil,
Just to be evil.
Some people hate you,
Just to hate you.

And then I thought.
And I looked closer.
And yes, some people suck.
But some people I pity.

Because some people are mean,
Because that’s how they’ve been treated.
Some people lie to you,
Because they’ve been lied to.
Some people hurt you,
Because they’ve been hurt.
Some people are evil,
Because that’s what they’re surrounded by.
And some people hate you,
Because that’s all they’ve ever known.
