Learning

As I grew up I learned the rules So I wouldn't be Nobody's fool I followed them all Did as I was told For I knew if I didn't They were going to scold It seems no matter How I tried Most often times I was denied At times they said I broke the rules 'Cause I made them look Like the fools At times I tried to tell them That they were wrong No matter how much I protested They always stood strong You see when I was young Adults said, they know more than I In some instances yes But I always lost no matter how hard I tried But I couldn't let on At times I was smarter Because then things Could be become much harder Soon I learned it was an ego thing For they had this need to be right That's when I learned early on There's no use in putting up a fight 1-3-19/RjH
