It can be hard to get ahead in the world
It bites and you get what you get
Nothing less
You make your own fortune
With things of value that are worthless
And you don’t complain
For you get what you get
When the chance comes to make
To create
Take it
And do what you can to make it pay
And as it rains down upon you
Think to yourself if that chance were missed
So to would be the rain
And you would be thirsty for water
