Maybe We Need "Bad" People

Maybe We Need “Bad” People

I hate when they

Call you a criminal

Because they weren’t there to

See what you went through

I hate when they say

That you’re evil

Because I don’t know

Where I’d be without you

You were the one

Who defended me

I was protected because

Of your popularity

You were the one

Who jumped in

To support me

I wouldn’t be breathing

If your fists

Weren’t there

When they swarmed me

You were the one

Who sold the drugs

To keep me stylish

And to help pay the bills

You were the one

Who “collected” violently

To keep me fed

You could’ve been killed

I thank you

And sadly society

Will never see

The hero you are

And how in some way

You freed me

From where we began

As I drive away

And you re-enter the bars

Thank you …

For being “bad”

So I had the chance to be good
