Urge To Smile

Urge To Smile By Nate Spears The morning sun rises My flesh is set back, Due to my body needing much needed rest I'm stuck wondering Does anyone else Ever feels the urge to smile? Right about now, I'm feeling sour A grin attached to my face That lights up the sky Behind my clouds of joy Lies a lie Everyone is wondering how? How can he smile? When so much is going on Rapidly by the hour, People are losing their homes Some can barely feed their kids The government is gone Rather spend our money, On billion dollar drones Never the less, We're blessed We're here to see another day Being healthy and relevant Gives me courage To soar and see a new day With unlimited fight, packed under my wings Another day Another chance For tomorrow Thanks in advance As long as I'm living, I can better my condition So it's mandatory to smile A privilege to be living.
