How can you mold me> It cant be done Man versus water? We know who won If you think you can mold me, reload your gun The balls in your court and I am playing for fun Growing up poor it did not deter me Thinking more about it it only referred me To the unfortunate way life was meant to be This I know, and for this is what molds me I am real and you are deceived You think I am struggling? I am just relieved For what I cant understand is you do not see How good you have it yet you dont believe You have been molded by the ones that cant see This is the reason for my sorrow and pity I am molding my cup I have been given the chance I am molding my cup from the remains of your glance If you strike me one my cup takes a blow If you strike me twice your water runs low So I ask you again man versus water? Drink from you cup and you will realize I taught her!
