› Treat others the way you want to be treated.

Baby, I see you coming undone I can see you start to wonder Can see it slipping under the rug Complications that are hard to Understand The future slipping out of our hands Such promises we’ve heard em all Before yeah yeah So say, I’ll carry on So say, I’ll keep holding on… its o.k. To say I’ve seen better days So take your time Life’s not fair But I’ll take it For those that aren’t here We’ll make it Life is not fair but things are Getting better So for you, I’ll leave the light on Lady, I’ve seen better days than This one Spent summer nights with love ones So swiftly over not forgotten Memories I’d given up, I’ve held you up and You for me Found a way to see the hope in Tragedy yeah yeah So say, I’ll carry on So say, I’ll keep holding on… its o.k. To say I’ve seen better days So take your time Life’s not fair But I’ll take it For those that aren’t here We’ll make it Life is not fair but things are Getting better If you let her take you there it Better, and on you I’ll keep an eye on Life’s not fair But I’ll take it For those that aren’t here We’ll make it Life is not fair but things are Getting better If you let her take you there Better, and on you I’ll keep an eye on Better, it’s a shame to see you crying Yeah yeah

These song lyrics represent the quote I chose because the song tells how life isn’t always fair and or easy.

Tell Say it`s not fair Express your doubts Complain about this humbug Discrimination should not be implicted Show your fear Dare to tell your advice Don`t be humbled Racism should be despised Tell everybody they laugh in the same tongue Tell everybody they cry in the same tongue Words they use Try to confuse Yeah, there`s no one bigger Than anyone in this whole big prison yard

This song talks about how racism isnt fair. And that it is rude to call people names. And that racism isnt need to be implied.

"Because the greatest love of all Is happening to me I found the greatest love of all Inside of me The greatest love of all Is easy to achieve Learning to love yourself It is the greatest love of all" Sing that to those friends of yours. You go girl! (also try "Independent Woman" by Destiny's Child) Source(s): "I believe the children are our future teach them well, and let them lead the way."

What the song lyrics are trying to say is don’t let people tell yiu what to do. And don’t worry what about others have to say. An do YOU.

“Bad things are always going to happen in life. People will hurt you. But you can't use that as an excuse to fail or to hurt someone back. You'll only hurt yourself.”

I picked a quote because this quote deals with people harming others and dealing with others harming you.

If they respect you, respect them. If they disrespect you, still respect them. Do not allow the actions of others to decrease your good manners, because you represent yourself, not others.

I picked this quote because it represents cassie disrespecting lillian jean because she had bumped into her. And mr simms pushed cassie for not apologizing.
