PUSHING THROUGH

Somebody once told me
Everything works out
You may not like it
But that’s what life’s about

That’s where I disagree
They’re all living like drones
I won’t let that be me
I’ll make a life of my own

I’m watching them crumble
They toss their lives away
I’m not going to fumble
I work harder every day

I take every chance
I’ve got nothing to lose
I can’t fall from my stance
Don’t need an excuse

I’ll do what I must
To get to the top
I’m as good as the best
I’m not going to stop

I’m in front of the crowd
I’m going to prevail
I will make you proud
You won’t see me fail

well... after having a couple of crappy jobs, i felt that if i didn't find a way to get a good job then i could be low paid nothing for the rest of my life... better to get through college or work to a management position than to waist my time and money.
