This Life We Live Poem by Daniel McCann

To get what you want in this life we live
I know its hard
but we have to give
everything we can
sometimes they dont understand
all they wanna do is put you down
they dont want you to make it
but you have got to no matter what
that is what... I have... found.

I have found no exit
at this
round about
cause life can be like a cage
your locked inside
there's... no way out
no way through the net society traps you in
and you might ask me who am I to tell you
if you believe you will win
but all I have is this hope
this hope inside my heart
and I trust in it
to help take me through
the pitch, black, dark.
