Jordan James - Modesty lyrics

[Verse: Jordan James] Everyone is so quick to acclaim Themselves critically and stand on A pedestal for those they deem lesser To see, while looking down on the world Their ego expanded, with sharp teeth They swallow each gasp of air like they Need more than others to breathe I wonder often each day if what this World needs is a little less pride and A dose of modesty, and a little honesty Shedding some light, and I'll surely admit I've Been the one in my rhetoric but I'm trying To work on it, I'm on a path to my betterment If we can all walk it together and realize We're all equal, maybe the change we Create can join us as one people So let's join hands, no bands to bind us Realize we're all mankind and be kind And selfless, all this hate makes no sense [PreChorus: Jordan James] Do you value modesty over a life of luxury And humanity over getting rich while others Struggle for needs? [Chorus: Jordan James] Will you practice modesty? Will you walk the things you preach And will you actually do something To help those in need? These are questions that I ask myself Because I want to believe that when I achieve my goals that I'll be everything That I want to see change in this world And not do it for reward, and not set Myself above anyone else Would it be ironic to believe in myself? [PreChorus]
