My name is Derrick Lawson and I come from the ‘Bridge,
Where people try to make some money
and they’re dying to live.
My dream job is business,
working with technology,
be friends with Bill Gates,
One job is enough to change your life
One job to ease the pain, take away the strife.
If I could work at one job for the rest of my days
It would be in the ocean working with stingrays,
Waking up in a room,
With not even a pair of shoes.
They stripped me down,
Took me from my town,
And here I awaited my doom.
This dream that haunted me often
