One day
In my life
Something hard will come
Something difficult

For me
Maybe for many Americans

And so many people
Take everything for granted
In this country

I guess I've just read
Too much history

Peace and prosperity
Not a guarantee

And neither is
Three meals a day

I'm kind of glad
In a way
I've had a difficult life
In some ways

I'm more ready
Than some people

When difficult times come
You'll see
Who people really are
What their character is like
