Nothing Is For Free Poem by Lubna Hazeem

I remember at the start
I drove my first 90s car
And everyone around me
Seemed to be quiet happy

But everything changed since
Life had changed all my friends
Who told me i had big shoes to fill
And i lost my skills, i lost my skills

Just because you dyed your hair
Just because you ripped your clothes
It doesn't make you cool, you know
It just make you a fool, you know

What have you got to prove to me?
You're living a lie you don't believe
You think you've got it figured but still
You're just a fool who lost his skills

No use of pretending to be
Someone who's not in need
You see, no one's free in life
Because nothing is for free
Nothing is for free.....

Who do you want to be?
What do you truly believe?
See, your heart's got a voice
That's louder than the noise

The sound at the back
Comes from a place like that
See, the whole world's tired
Of it's questionable desires

Nothing is for free
Nothing is for free
Everything you risk
Is just bound to be lost
