Scrapping by without a lending hand
The rent raised, they’d never understand
Streets to wander with hearts heavy laden
A carefree spirit, hopes to have made it
While piles stack up with unpaid bills
They wish for freedom, to run to a hill
Without the trivialities and endless payments
To be well-off enough, not even famous
Toiling work and nights unslept
A bucket of savings slowly kept
And the climb and perseverance away from being poor
Gained them the freedom out of the door
Of sleepless nights and unfed stomachs
Their pitiful despair gave way to a plummet
