Refund!!!

My parents paid good money
To put me on this earth
Just so I could love
Show the world my worth

So here I'm am
Paying taxes, fighting for health care
Raising kids alone
Without Welfare

Child support is a joke
Fought for it with tears
The youngest almost an adult
Here in 2 more years

$300 shy from
Earned Income Credit
Thank goodness for family
With whom I indebted

I'm don't owe the world anything
And it doesn't really owe me 
My parents should get a refund
Just because of all the stupidity
