I'm Gonna Do It.


I'm not a Hippie

I just want to make others Happy.

It will be difficult to study and to not party hard in college.

To graduate is just an expensive privilege to be acknowledged.

To work in a Career as an Environmental Engineer?

I will be a victim of the Right Wings' leers.

I'm going to make the lives of 3rd world citizens bearable

and not just give them a free pocket Bible.

I'll most likely have to fight the Government

But hey, at least I'll bring those politicians some excitement.

They'll threaten, "Do it you won't, We'll never be bested".
