Array ( [sid] => 129522 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => SLAVE FOR LIFE [time] => 2006-12-17 20:31:57 [hometext] => Lifes just been too hard on me latley .. Its hard when you try so hard [bodytext] => In the land of opportunity

In the land they call pure and rare

I am a slave to my own life?

No one to blame is that unfair?

Never had no Good luck

I’ve worked for every buck

Never had a chance to shine

I get dragged down every time

I am an inspiration to many people

For my courage and for my strength

So they say I help them accomplish

Life threw their struggle and pain

I work that little bit harder

Just to eat and to survive

I struggle that little bit harder

To break threw my children’s smile

I once had everything I could wish for

But it was sadly taken away

I had a life, family and fortune

Now I barley can survive a day

How life may treat some people

How life may bring you gifts

How life is what you make of it

So they say but it’s not what it seems

So ill just work that little bit harder

I may not ever regain my life

Dear lord I pray to you

Don’t make me a slave until I die

SLAVE FOR LIFE
