The Haves and the Have Nots
In life there are those haves and those who have not
We are told there will always be poor people in life
Yet poverty causes me so much strife
In life.
I hate being so poor
I cannot take it any more
There has to be success in store.
I see the want in the eyes of my wife
My child's hunger cuts like a knife
There has to be an end of this strife
In life.
