Earning it alone
Start off young with hopes of going big
but people put you down snap it like a twig
keep going keep trying they dont matter
my dream is to be on tv and strike out that last batter
grow up fast child hood wont wait
put on medicine because you always stay up late
its the usual to have seperated parent now
now all I want is to make it and have my own house
A teenager a rebel a bad kid
say please thank you hold open the door and thats it
graduation day comes and life is about to start over
hope for the best in college maybe take four leaf clovers
im half small town kid half cowboy
going to a big town im really going to prove a point
offered scholarships to play sports that i was in
now I want to be the white coat that sells you medicine
going to class every day with that college struggle
my parents weren't lying when they said life will burst my bubble
I really need to prove my self but for that i have to buy books
hoping for some help and this is where to find it from the looks
Im not a rapper but i wrote this to powerpoetry.org
now my best shot is to hope and pray to the lord
