Does it really matter?


Does it really matter
What you fight about
How much you can argue
If you pack a clout

Have you stopped to notice
If you win or lose
Little ever changes
Still the same old shoes

The same reality
Always rules and laws
The same humanity
Never think to pause

History one cycle
Lives of same mistakes
Children as their parents
No tradition break

Consider opinions
Break out of the mold
Rebellion is healthy
If reason yet holds

If little done matters
Then why worry so
So many offended
Yet nothing to show

Just change your attitude
And accept mistakes
Humans are not perfect
No matter what the stakes
