Hey pretty girl, Who asked you To take on the world? They don't know what you've been through That you had a child When you were one yourself You grew up so seamlessly Even when you got little help. You work two jobs Care for the homeless In the most extreme way. I have learned more from you Than I can ever repay. Still, you never consider yourself Unlucky or unfortunate. Just because we are different Does not mean a thing People seem to think That you're beer and I'm champagne That isn't how it works at all. My parents say You've made questionable choices Like they haven't? I don't understand Why money is so important Just because we come from Separate sectors of the financial latter Does not mean We lack a friendship that matters
