I understand that we can't be omnipotent
And that only God can
But why do we have to be just so ignorant when it comes to the lives of others?
I understand that nobody wants everyone to know all their business
Because it's human nature to shut down
It's implanted in our hearts to be secretive
"Dishonesty can be rampant"
But if we weren't so absent-minded

But we don't
Because we're not omnipotent
And only God is
So I guess maybe the world isn't the problem
Maybe the problem isn't human nature, either
Maybe the problem is me
Maybe it's just time for me to except
That this is the best
That the world is ever going to get
