Life Is Such Sweet Sarcasm

breaks from a simple high school life
in a tranquil school
that isnt filled with gangs
where i can go home
and there is plenty of money
and my mom is sitting on the couch
because she has everything we need
because we arent behind on the bills
and my brothers rest peacefully
because no one bullies them 
and my grades are the best
and i can get a job anytime 
to help my careless family

just in case, just in case.
