Not Omnipotent

For the grace of GodYou escaped the abyss
So don’t ever forget
To give credit to where it’s due
For only a fool will continue
To brag and boast
That he was fully responsible
For pulling himself up by boot straps
Only the arrogant
Will laugh at the unfortunate
While misplacing the concept of humanity.
Don’t become the perpetrator of hate
When you’ve been lucky to achieve
A modicum of success
After decades of powerlessness
For if you become restless
Pour that nervous energy
Into improving the world
Not selfishly pillaging it
Because you feel it’s a birthright
No one is entitled into happiness
Surely you have the right to speak your mind
With no guarantees anyone will listen
Let alone even follow
But don’t sell out your ideals
Just to fit in
Don’t pretend to be someone
You’ll never understand
For you’ll discover who
Your loyal friends are
Remember to show your gratitude
You’re not
Never was
Never will be omnipotent.
