Not Everything In Life


Not everything in life goes to plan But you can only do the best you can Lady luck has not been on your side By her you are always denied You work hard for your take home pay And with your kids in the park play You honour and you love your wife And you lead a good and a moral life Though your boss your work for him does praise He knocked back your request for a raise Yet you are not one to complain And loyal to your boss you remain You clock in on time every day And you always work hard for your pay

I prolong to achieve scholarships. Why? Because I halt at desperate need of continuance to study at college. Drexel University is not an easy one to pay back. I do all I can to achieve what i truly need.
