The one that showed me kindness
Was the one that taught me kindness
Though i did not recognize it
Still i might have died without it
And when i awakened
It was too late to thank her
If i live someday i'll make repayment
And show someone the kindness she showed me
When my voice grows strident
When i feel important
I'm reminded of that kindness
And where i'd be without it
I'm learning my lessons
It may take me a lifetime
Give me strength to justify my being
And show someone the kindness shown to me
