GPT

The page weighs a singing thought against violence and losing a child, then rejects thinking or swaying that way in favor of day-to-day being.

The emotional comparison is abrupt and remains grammatically rough in the source. Correctness does not require smoothing it into conventional syntax.

The page says that to think a thought 'I is tough whEN / it siNgs', rates it 'BEttEr thAN VioLANcE' yet as quick 'As / A Loss of A child', and then refuses that mode: 'wE doN'T thiNk / thAd wAy,' and 'wE ArE just dAy / todAy'.

Thinking is treated as both song and wound; the retreat into being just day today reads as relief rather than defeat. The rough grammar, the source spelling thAd, and the provisional dash before the second wE are kept.
