Despite the fight I’ve fought
I’ve still got fight despite being frought
With stress and messes
I’ll address this
I do not quit
I’ll not idly sit
And let life pass me by
Why let my dreams die
I’ve seen the death of dreams
The scheming seeming
To die in Dad’s eyes
Crying hidden in lies
It’s not just my dream
I’m on the losing team
The Chicago Cubs of hustle
But even the Cubs eventually bustled
and won the World Series
But if I may get serious
I carry these hopes for Dad
For me, I’ve had
to choose between work and my goals
I’ve worked my shoes to the soles
Sore and swole
It took it’s toll
But I’ve still got that light
That fight despite
The hardships and trials
I bottle my valor in vials
One day my dad and my dreams will be
My tenacity is the trait I value in me
