Ambition Against Poverty

Takes Ambition to overtake poverty 
You living a life with odds against you ,
stuck in the phase of being "The Life of the Party"
Now you don't know what to do,

making change is the only result,
time is ticking now you must meet fate
you shouldn't have to join a cult,
even if your dreams come late
Turn Poverty into Ambition 
Even if you have to fight for your 
rights thru a petition

Turn poverty into ambition 
show the world you're on an undeniable 
mission..
