Right Back Up

8/26/17 When I was a youth Rarely lied, to tell the truth Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth Fell down, got right back up Instead of staying stuck And not giving a f*** From dawn to dusk Pushed my luck Some of which took guts Was broke thinking that life sucks Until I started making a lot of bucks Above the Earth's crust Was careful with trust Because I saw too many things that were unjust And the subject of disgust Still did what I must Without a fuss Got it wrong or right In the daylight and during night Living an honest life
