In Reverse


For all those out there, Who think life is unfair, Look from a different side, The turning of the tide. You'll realize what you have, Is more than what you gave. There are those with less, Who's life is a mess. Some are obvious and loud, But hidden by a cloud, Are those who's foundations, Who's aspirations, Are above most, Yet they have lost, To those who don't deserve. And their life takes a swerve. Despite what they grew up knowing, They did not grow up glowing, Because those with more, To settle the score, Were stripped of their rank, Or had to give more from the bank. All because their parents worked hard, And now they remain scarred. How is this new system fair? That we have to share, All our money must be disbursed, This is not fixed, only reversed.
