keep it simple by Dave Orestes 1
published on
I think perspective is important but ends up seemingly difficult to attain. Being so self absorbed that you cannot understand or at times even see other people/nature ends up with a fertile ground for sensless persecution/discrimination . Perspective I think will make you humble and humility will allow empathy to grow
lyrics
Ok now, let's keep it simple
you're born,you live ,you die
I hate to inform you but
there isn't any particular reason why
yes..you are important for sure
but guess what?? so is everything else on this small world
you are not above..you are not below
you are just part of a bigger show
if you don't see eye to eye
with someone else's view
remember you are part of them as much as they are part of you
so live your life as you see fit
and leave everyone else to find their own niche
and if you still don't see eye to eye
please try to see heart to heart
I think that might work

It takes all sorts to make a world; it's our differences that make life interesting. Beautiful message, Dave. I support your words and your song 100%.
