That Struggle

I was born in, that struggle!! I refuse to settle for less Watching mother stress for more She works overtime for checks Still is short to bless us four. Ya see the tears don't lie when the- Pain comes to surface and you- Loose all hope like when you think everything's worthless. I was born in, that struggle!! She hugs me, loves me Chills below me hangs above I discovered her she smothers me It's always push and shove. Ya see the tears don't lie when the- Pain comes to surface and you- Loose all hope like when you think everything's worthless. I was born in, that struggle!! Dime quarter penny, I'm short of plenty, Mind sorta weary often Eyes soft and teary. I's brought up shifting 'partments blind hard of hearing, My mother put a belt on my backside I didn't act right. I was born in, that struggle.
