Kind All the Time

You can’t see most other people’s struggles
When you’re struggling inside of your own struggle bubble
Oughtta just assume everybody’s got their troubles
And try not to let ‘em get your feathers get so ruffled

So when they lash out and you know it ain’t you
Remember they’re walking wounded, too

It’s not that hard to be kind all the time

Nobody likes to be corralled like cattle
And we’re all fighting many an unseen battle
Carrying our trauma and emotional chattel
Trying not to fall into the chasm we straddle

Just respond and don’t react
They’re probably hurtin’ real bad, so cut ‘em some slack

It’s not that hard to be kind all the time
It’s not that hard to be kind all the time

You can’t see their invisible burden
Or what they’re tryin’ to keep hidden behind the curtain
The only way you can ever know for certain
Is to go through the thing that’s got ‘em to hurtin’

I know you probably wanna put ‘em in their place
But it’s an opportunity to give some grace

It’s not that hard to be kind all the time
It’s not that hard to be kind all the time
