I Shall Do What I Can


To be honest, I’m not always smart or strong, but I can definitely try to help you out.

I may seem lazy at times, but I can sure as hell rise up to the challenge.

If you need help to fix something, then I’ll help based on what I know.

It won’t be much, but it’s much better than me neglecting you.

If you need help with homework or project, I shall do what I can.

History: I can definitely help.

Science: I can also help.

English: I can help with that too.

Math: I might suck, I might not, but I shall help.

If you need me for anything physical, I shall definitely at least try.

I might struggle, but I will make it to the end or until someone takes over.

Yeah, I can only get you so far.

Either way you can count on me to at least try to help.

And let’s face it; it’s much better than me neglecting you

…. Either that or I flip you off.
