Glass Houses

Its Funny how
a situation looks diffrent
depending on which side of the door
Your standing on...
 
Evaluating someones situation
from limited knowledge...and education
 
Usually means...there will be
a fucked up determination
soon to follow
 
Making an outsiders opinion
some what...hard to swallow
 
Simple Minded Shallow Fuckers
Emotionally draining bugged out bloodsuckers
 
Always more than willing
To  offer words and thoughts
that were never asked for
 
Mouths always open...
Yet listening skills are poor
 
These hot air blowers...
These hateful stone throwers
 
Pacing to and fro  
to see whom they may devour
 
Ready to crack windows on
Houses of other peoples lives
 
As if... they have the power
 
I guess ... I just dont  
Give a damn

 
How others feel about what  
Im going through
 
My ears don't even open
Unless you've been through
something close to what I've been through
 
Even then...
I'll take the words
with a grain of salt
 
Because if too much gets said
a cussing out
is usually gonna be the result
 
Genuine people know what to say
and do
Genuine people
Never make a habit of offending you
 
I can feel real concern ...
A million miles away
 
Yet those full of shit...
Might as well quit
To them I have nothing to say
 
Cause the funny thing is...
 
Most folk who through stones
at your house...
Have a Glass House of their own
So my suggestion is this...
 
Please... Just leave other  
Peoples shit...alone
 
I'm Just Saying
