BITTER SWEET

To get pay
You must go 
Through things
Things we face
Just for the pay
Things we can't say
Things that almost drive us insane.

So many 
Pains and shame
We faced
But unable to tame us
We're always resilient 
Onward and forward 
Until we succeed.

Good life
Our destination 
Never settled 
For anything 
But the best.
