Never lose sight
Antonio Romano Nov 2015
"Dear Lord the battles that go through life
We ask for a chance that's fair
A chance to equal our stride
A chance to do or dare
If we should win
Let it be by the code
With faith and honor held high
But if we should lose
We'll stand by the road
And cheer as the winners go by
DAY BY DAY
WE GET BETTER AND BETTER
TIL WE CANT BE BEAT
WON'T BE BEAT"

Let me tell you what football means to me
Football is more than just a sport, it's a way to be
It's a true test of toughness and you will be beat
And there is nothing I like more than hitting someone in the teeth
It's funny how quickly a season goes by
That's why every second of every moment you have to try
You never know when your last play will be
For me...
Mine was two days ago
Now I'm on the sidelines watching the team finish the show
It ***** I can't finish my last ever season, but I gotta keep my head held high
We have some tough opponents left like Babylon, Shoreham, and mount Sinai
Me not playing feels like a loss but I wanna see my team win
I'm going to be with them every step of the way, even if I can't get in
We have been a team for the past six years and this is the last time we are together
We have a chance to do something special, something that will stick with us forever
Let's keep our heads held high and our focus on the prize
Because we have a chance to win it all and cherish it for the rest of our lives
It's our last ride as seniors! We have to go all out
Because I'm sure as hell no one wants to be crying at the end of this
We wanna come out on top as champions!

Consequential Happiness
Antonio Romano Nov 2015
We live in a ****** up world that we created
People blame society, but those are the same people who made it
Those who blame society are the same people who are scared to face it
Those who are different are the people who try to erase it
We live in a world where drug abuse and ****** is a frequent thing
In this world its hard to find a ******* decent being
You surround yourself with people who bring you down
They get you in some **** and now you look like a clown
You look to them for help but they are no where to be found
Now you're in court about to be jail bound
All because they asked you to hold their drugs so they didn't get searched
You got caught and now you're the one whose hurt
You did 8 years for possession of drugs that weren't even yours
Your spent every day on all fours doing chores for people that would have no problem slamming your head in the door
Now you're out and you have nobody to turn to
Your friends and family were so ashamed the had no choice but to desert you
You lost all hope because you have no one left
So you over dose in hopes that you'd die while you slept... ****
There are too many stories of this in the world today and I'm happy I'm not one of those stories

— The End —
