The more you work or harder you try
Some things just won't work
So don't sit and try to cry
Either you quit or put in more work.

The harder you try to look
Some things you just won't see
You can google or search a book
Some answers you just won't see.

The harder you care or love
Some people just won't care
You can clean or cook on the stove
That sentiment he or she won't share.

The harder you try for peace of mind
The more you will finally come to agree
That inner peace is not easy to find
It really doesn't exist in wealth or a degree.
