Whoa is not me
Please don’t feel my pain
I’ll try not to whine to you
How about you doing the same
Everybody lives this life
The healthy and the lame
Some people born with lousy hand
But still must play the game
My biggest props for disabled kids
Who fight with heads held high
Not social justice warriors
Offended by a fly
Hey, look at how my ancestors were treated
How can I possibly succeed?
Well, it starts with getting off your ass
Go to school, learn to write and read
Then get a job and work it hard
And save a little bit
Have some fun, find some love
The key is never quit
Especially in America
We have no right to grieve
When even those on welfare
Have big flat-screen TVs
Yeah, lots of complainers walking about
Looking for easy credit
So offended when somebody points out
You’ve got to work to get it
No, life ain’t fair, like Daddy said
And so far he ain’t lyin’
I’ve had my share of ups and downs
But still my kite keeps flyin’
Keep pluggin’ kids, celebrate small victories
Even if defeat is soon upon us
It’s the journey, not destination………right
And we all ain’t born Adonis
