It may ALL be gone by tommorow


Walked in that bathroom 

smell of sweat and must

It never smell like this before

what was that, that struck?

Seen this lady washing like a duck

my heart fell in a gust

offered her money constantly of times

but she would'nt take a dime

She repeatedly said God is on my side 

So lift your head up and don't cry

This lady was washing in a sink

clothes were laboriously stink

no shoes, but socks

feet looked rough like rocks

She repeatedly said God is on my side

Do not worry about me my child 

Let me know how your day is going 

Be better than how I was growing

Every since that day I realized everything could be gone by tommorow

Seeing that lady in the bathroom made me realize I have to work instead of borrow

Stay focused in school

Do not worry about being cool

Cause someday if I don't be focused that could be me to.
