Battling The Odds

Have you ever felt the emptiness within From the feeling you are a loser that you cannot seem to win In your life's uphill journey you are battling the odds You believe you must be one of the children of the lesser gods One of the people who do survive from day to day There are many like you who do live in this way But perseverance always does seem to pay And hope springs eternal as some like to say Out of work with little money and financially down In what happens to be a high unemployment town You have even considered of moving elsewhere For to try out your luck in the big World out there Life for many it is not unlike Murphy's Law It is not meant to be easy said George Bernard Shaw.
