The Good in All People

I believe in the good in all people

I think it's not that the privilidged don't care
I think it's either they don't know
Or they don't know how to

Feeling helpless and eventually desensitised
At the end accepting unwillingly
Unconsciously
That all disparity is an inevitable part of social reality

And that we can't do anything about it

I promise myself
That I would do something real one day
If not soon

To mobilise those who don't know
Including myself

To realise that they, we, have power
To do something more
Something real

Something more
Than just leaving things be

Something more
Than turning a blind eye

Something more
Than sighing to ourselves
And thinking
Kasihan yah

Because
I believe in the good in all people
I believe in the good in all people
I believe in the good in all people
