Everyone For Themselves

Everyone for themselves and God for us all
One of the more cynical sayings that I can recall
Often used by the self centred in their promotion of greed
Their idea if you do help out others in life you won't succeed
I too can be selfish as I've come to realize
And the selfishness of others I should not criticize
But we dislike in others what in our own selves we see
These are words that does surely apply to me
But everyone for themselves to all does not apply
Not to those who to live an honourable existence their very best do try
People who to help out others go out of their way
And try to perform at least one good deed every day
Everyone for themselves and God for us all
The thinking of one who in ways is quite small.
