We stumble, we fall and we get up
We don't beg, don't kneel and we stand up
Failure will never be an option
Life is about struggling and taking action
We are living in a world full of hypocrisy
Selfishness, greed, meanness and cruelty
The wicked ones are now in charge
They behave like they're bad, invincible and large
But they fail to realize that tomorrow
Belongs to no one. Let them stand in a row
As they claim owning everything for now
It does take time for fools to change. Let them plow
Let them plot. We shall leave this earth the same way
Speechless, penniless, motionless and lifeless one day
Failure will never be an option
A Supreme Being is watching every action.
