The Cards I Was Dealt

I’m rather disappointed with the hand I was dealt When I was a child the choice was a stick or the belt I know today that these were just tools Wisdom can come from the mouths of fools. It seems today I’ve placed some cards down Change has arrived without making a sound The more you have lost the more that can be found My feet seem to float up right off of the ground. I don’t know why changes comes so hard The road should be smoother once it is tarred The more things remain the more they need change Even though at first it feels rather strange. It’s been going so good I think I’ll put down some more What I don’t know is what the future has in store To feed all the hungry and give to the poor This is the kind of change we should endure. The peace that I feel was always inside The fear in the world made peace want to hide It grows like a flower opening up for the sun As I look at what change really has done.
