The Necessity of Change

Consequence is what Ive always neglected 
So with regret i have been infected
I knew this would happen it was expected
The reason why i will never be respected
So much to say iI just can't get it out
I've gotta stand up because only losers pout
To my desires i must do more than shout
Because that is what life is all about
I've got to try and pick up the pieces
Put them back together sign new leases
To my life i will write a new thesis
That is how the disappointment in my life finally ceases
I've gotta believe that my dreams can be achieved
By the envious I will no longer be deceived
To my burdens I will be relieved
When iI finally do it,  it will be because I believed
