Struggling


Life is a struggle Sometimes you get smuggled It is hard as a rock Not easy to be unlocked Some say you need a heart of steel My words are very real You learn the dos and don’ts of the game And realize that people don’t always stay the same Some go home and cry Waiting and waiting to die Crying to God wanting him to hear there plead Because Mommas and Daddies can’t feed Parents lose their jobs Teenagers think they need to rob Some shout “ why me!” But if you take a deep breathe and actually see See through all the lies You will learn a lot And never let it rot Life is a struggle Sometimes you get smuggled
