If I don’t mind my emotions,
They’ll get a mind of their own.
If you dare push my buttons,
I’m gonna’ push back—harder.
I’m like a volcano,
I can only hold it in—so long.
When I was a teenager,
I’d get my feelings hurt.
When I finally grew up,
I was finally at peace.
But now that I’m so old,
I get triggered so easily.
Because my emotions,
Have built up too much steam.
So please mind your manners,
With the folks,
‘Cause you never can tell,
When you’re gonna’ blow it!

Listen to Hawk Nelson—Words song
“I plead with you to control your tempers, to put a smile upon your faces, which will erase anger; speak out with words of love and peace, appreciation, and respect. If you will do this, your lives will be without regret. Your marriages and family relationships will be preserved. You will be much happier. You will do greater good. You will feel a sense of peace that will be wonderful.” By: Gordon B. Hinckley
