I’m sure this happens all the time and that it’s on So many minds yet they refuse to talk about it Only A glimpse of an emotion or a sickness of the soul Some twisted reasoning misleads to spread its roots Just like a weed to saturate the canvas of our world Man’s reach exceeds the grasp around the throats of Those he must compel That deciding moment should he Take his rightful place will bathe in all his glory Of accomplishment and grace You only want your share of what is good In this God-blessed world Always wanting Deep down you know it doesn’t work that way-you’ve got to take it all Always wanting more Break no commandment that is written down But if it isn’t it’s anybody’s game when the spirit of The law is missing You’ll need a good excuse: Just Say that you were on a mission and hope your prayers Are not ignored I don’t want your handouts I don’t want your hand-me-downs I want what’s mine
