Medical Inspiration


Tears running down her cheek

No insurance but a piggy bank in her hand

Change is all we got and she's begging them to see me

Sorry is all they're saying, doctor's visits not a freebie

I promise I'll do better, mom. Make up for all those years.

I promise I'll do good, mom. No more tears.
