satisfaction to see smiles on young people
gratification of helping others is rewarding
not the kind of reward as far as money
more of inspiring young people to be more greater than any common denominator
i know what its like to have nothing
my words of wisdom gives them hope that they'll be about something
to witness struggles of young people not having any decent meal is humbling
not a moment of antagonistic backlashes that lead to kids rumbling
venue of a small setting created social development that became intimate
not one time, any insults were exchange in which a person can easily emulate
it was a day of joy
although they didn't get a favorite toy
giving back to help those less fortunate is something i proudly embrace
my kids will make it, as they grow and continue to keep pace
their achievement will leave people clueless without a trace
once they graduate, they'll be ready for the real world that is beyond that violent place
