Inhibitions No More

Location

Fighting the fight one day at a time

Problems keep arising, repeating like rhyme

Keep your head up, more important knees strong

Scratch them and bruise them when days seem long

The goal a good life

The stepping stone a degree

Some settle for the quiet wife

MRS just doesn’t do it for me

No, I must win it and win it I can

For that purpose I don’t need a man

Flash-forward, a red line, diploma in hand

Days tick like seconds: gravity and sand

Help the nation escape the lies

The traps and the ties

All by speaking truth

Giving leaders a boost

Where have we digressed?

Unimportant for now

Only what matters is

I

Help

Somehow
