If

If on you way one sunny day someone should ask a favor

If you refuse you’ll  hear the news, that you are a stingy neighbor

If you comply and only try to think that you’re doing something

You’ll realize, and be surprised to hear that you are worth nothing

If you only try to find the reason why you are ridiculed  and slandered

By someone bad, and extremely sad who is beneath your standard

When plainly told, of being bold and the comment was simply filthy

They’ll walk away, with nothing to say, disappointed, angry and guilty
