Redemption

There are people highly misunderstood -
men and women with hearts that desire
and minds that fog and souls that have sinned -
there are people, like you and I.

It's not fair to put on a label on someone
when you don't know their side of the story.
Some people are just shy, or mean, or cold
not because it's their nature-
but because they're scared.
They're scared that you will damage
the already damaged.

Be nice, it doesn't cost much,
You never know who's going through which hell.
Sometimes, establishing a random connection
could be an act of redemption.
