The world sees things like they are black and white

but the truth is

life is not always fair

I can see the shades of gray in between

while others look though a bias lens

Can you take off those glasses

and see what I see

The shades of gray in between

You can work hard

but not make a penny

and others assume it's because your lazy

but that isnt true

It's because your boss hates you

You walk to school in fear of your life

because the taliban

are dropping bombs from the sky

They say all Taliban are evil

but that is not true

Stop thinking life is black and white

Because that is just not true

there is shades of grey too

Thier was once a soldier in WW2

who was on the wrong side

at the wrong time

He was just trying to feed his family

is he evil?

Just like there are two sides to a coin

there are people

who do the wrong things for all the right reasons

They might have done wrong things

but sometimes

People need to know

life isn't always fair

Things might not be black and white

There once was a women who worked at a candy shop

Her parents died

when she was five

Is her life black and white?

Please, for me

see the shades of gray

in between
