Famous or infamous
Which is better
Do you want to be revered
And live by the letter
Or do you want to be remembered
For some outrageous act
Shocking the world
That you want to attack
Craving attention
Loving the notoriety
If there is no goodness inside
Is this the best you have for society
Responsibility comes with
Any kind of fame
Are you up for it
Can you take the pain
Surely you must know that
Kindness always wins
Your behavior will be in the spotlight
Everyone will be looking for your sins
Be famously good
Not infamously cruel
The world needs to be inspired
Not someone changing the rules
Egregious behavior will
Never be accepted
So think carefully
Or you could be rejected
Famous is what you need my friend
If you want to be remembered
It’s the only way to be
Or else you will be censored
