What Kind of Kind?

 

In my world there ain’t nobody else

So I learned to be kind: kind to myself

If there’s something I want, and it’s you or it’s me

You better believe, I’m gonna succeed

I’m fast and I’m smart, I do what I must

Cause I learned there’s not a soul I can trust

I’m kind to me now, like I’m kind every day

Now mind your own business and get out of my way  

 

If you’re in my circle then you passed the test

With family and friends I feel so blessed

I take care of those who take care of me

I’m kind to you cause you’re like family to me

I’ll even protect you from those who could hurt you

Compete and defeat you, or maybe desert you

In a world that’s cruel, crazy and cold

I will show kindness to one of my own

 

Humans are blessed to do more than survive

The test for my kindness: Are you alive?

All living things deserve my respect

I strive to be kind, that’s what I expect

Sometimes it’s not easy to find the right light

To bring into focus what’s not in our sight

Kindness is light that can bring clarity

The circle’s as wide as we see it can be

 

CHORUS: While it’s true that you’re one of a kind

Deep down inside, what do you find?

Like precious gems are found deep in a mine

What kind of kind is your kind of kind?

REPEAT CHORUS, end on V chord
