Bad things happen to good people Bad things happen to bad people Bad things happen to everyone Its inevitable. As I lay here thinking Why do all the horrible things happen to me I realize Its not just I, whom is struggling Everyone is struggling This society of "if you don't have this you ain't **** Is growing larger and money is growing smaller I don't want to leave But what if its the best thing for me I don't want to sit here and starve anymore I have nothing left My optimism is decreasing day by lonely day. I just can no longer live with this hope that will never Be, what am I to do? Who am I to call? Its then you fully understand This world is selfish No one is going to give you food No one is going to buy you clothes Or give you a warm bed to sleep in at night Its that very second while you're sitting there cold hungry and alone that you realize you're on your own
