Life Is What You Make Of It

Life is what you make of it some like to say

But with many people it is not this way

The homeless and poor living in dire poverty

With life is what you make of it would not agree

The one who first uttered these words must be of high social rank

Own a large property and have lots of money in the bank

She or he more than likely have never lived on poverty street

Where every day brings you some new challenge to meet

Your circumstance of birth can become your life\'s destiny

In a human world where there is so much inequality

Those born of poor parents of how it feels to be wealthy of will never know

In a world where for one to become very wealthy many poorer must grow

Life is what you make of it to the wealthy only apply

Since money speaks every language one cannot deny.
