Poor Man's Treasure


Adversity makes a man wise not rich

Yet everyone around acts like a snitch or a ..

Maybe it's just my imagination runnin at top speed

We in a world were it's possible to achieve our hopes & dreams

We live in a world were advirsity is needed

To give hope to the hopeless which is very much needed

Is everything we think of concieded?

Our heart desires can come true if we believe it

If we believe it, if we can see it, if you can dream it

But by the time the fog lifts from our eyes 

We would have ascended to heaven above the skies

Back into the arm of our father

As we reach the conclusion remember this

Adversity makes a man wise not rich
