Fate placed others in an indigent space
While others drown in the sea of grace
But God gave us a mind to use
If we want to become what we choose

The same rain the rich receive
And the same God we all believe
The same pain and evil nature send
Is the parity of life bestowed to all men

Theirs is not blessings and ours a curse
They just don't think like us
From ideas they all began and became
When discipline took over their game

The short strides they slowly took
You can't believe unless you look
The work and thoughts they had to do
'Twas their vision that sailed them thru'

The earth became theirs to take
Just the moment they became fully awake
And when swirled by great minds in people
Ignorance becomes the greatest evil

They chose to burn believing they'll shine
While others chose to sit and dine
God gave us all a mind to use
If we want to become what we choose

And follow the law devine that when you give
In abundance you will always receive
And whatever you want to get in life
Is yours if you carry people in your strife
