Why is it that you can’t make them happy?

Why is it that you always have to work harder?

Why is that no matter what you do it is seen as wrong?

 

You show your talent

They think you’re showing off

You will never make everyone happy

 

You tell you religion

They think you’re pushing them

You will never make everyone happy

 

You help the homeless

They think you’re helping the lazy

You will never make everyone happy

 

You don’t help the poor

They think you’re selfish

You will never make everyone happy

 

You work hard

They think you’re a try hard

You will never make everyone happy

 

You don’t try enough

They think you’re lazy

You will never make everyone happy

 

You make one mistake

They think you’re fully of them

You will never make everyone happy

 

You let a tiny secret slip

They think you’re not to be trusted

You will never make everyone happy

 

You don’t look pretty

They think you’re weird

You will never make everyone happy

 

You look pretty

They think you’re a pick me

You will never make everyone happy

 

You don’t fit their standards

They think you’re inferior

You will never make everyone happy

You do something embarrassing

They think you’re strange and mock you

You will never make everyone happy

 

You do you’re own thing

You think what you want

At least you can make yourself happy

I think everyone can relate to this, you’ve done something, that in your mind is okay but in the eyes of others it’s wrong when in reality it’s not.
