The Game of Life


“You’ll never make it, they’ll chew you up and spit you out”

I just want the world to see what I’m all about

A small girl living in a big world with so many possibilities

Slowly learning that nothing is going to be handed to me

You want it, go get it, momma said the best things in life aren’t free

I just want to be able to help, let them confide in me

I can do, it know I can

Who said the best psychologist in the world is a man

I’m a woman and the world will know my name

Never giving up, with every book I’ll gain

The knowledge to prosper, and be great

Psychology is my game, and I’ll will, check mate
