I'm No Better Than Anybody Else

I'm no better than anybody else,
I have my share of flaws, quirks, imperfections, and things that make me
tick,

One thing that makes me tick is when I'm told to make my own decisions,
be independent, and go with the flow,

Sure I'm my own person which makes me responsible for my own fate,
ideally,

Yet I know that there's more than just me in this world, and I'm just one
of the many billions of people in this world, in this universe,

And all I really want are just friendships, and if I had my way, everybody
would be my friend,

I'd get to know everybody on their personal level and try to be their friend
no matter what,

And while they're doing what they want to do and being true to themselves,

The only thing I want to do is to live as long of a life as possible with
as little loss or pain as possible,

So it's perfectly safe for me to be content with the things that I already
have,

All I want is a few close friends that will not only help me to keep my
feet on the ground but also help keep me in my place,

They'd be a lot of help by simply telling me to stop whenever I think,
say, or do something that's totally out of character,

Like I said, I am no better than anybody else, I have my set of flaws
just like everybody else does,

The only thing that I ask is that God and all His people around the world
and even in Heaven would simply tell me to STOP!
