Were All the Same

A young adult, Wearing scrubs all the time, Can't find a job, Living in a broken home, Wondering where his next meal will come from, A middle aged adult, Lower class job, Working his butt off, To just get past, Hard economy, Still living and breathing, Thats the same young adult, Who didn't want to go on breathing, With years of struggle, A home to call his own, A loving wife now, With kids of his to be raised right, Will just never know, Don't judge me, For my broken down home, Don't judge me, Because I made this life my own, Don't judge what you don't know, Because your problems maybe not be extreme, But your time will come and go, Were all the same, Just different pasts, Maybe some haven't the struggle, But lifes not over yet, You work for what you want, You make ends meet, As said before were all the same, Even if you look through a different door then me....
