Why Try Doing Anything?

I don't really care enough,
To risk the way that things are,
To make the changes I feel must be made,
For a better world.

For, who am I to know all of the answers?
Well, I do, but only from where I stand,
And there is so much that I don't know,
Though, with all to know, I know no less than other humans.

And one must think about motivation,
And the intent behind the goals.
Nothing is guaranteed to turn out right,
But good intentions are much better swallowed.

Oh it's alright,
I have enough going on,
Without trying to change the world.
That's how society keeps us down, my son.
