Struggles of The Unemployed
When things seems so hopeless and you cant find a Job,Just don't lose courage my friend and be tempted to rob,
Seek financial counselling, seek help for the unemployed,
Avoiding to taint yourself and muster up some joy.
Have faith trust God and pray for a job to keep for long,
This means that you'll be diligent, this means that you'll be strong.
Resist temptations to trade in drugs, resist the urge for dope,
Resist the urge for things to steal, pray for the strenght to cope,
Do not seek to get a gun to hold up businesses and banks,
Resist the desire for revenge, from all troubles and all pranks.
Enrol in classes to improve your skills,
And train yourself to pay the bills.
And when all the so called friends seek company to break the law,
Remember to resist my friend avoiding these human flaws,
For with a bad record you will not be employed,
To take your dreams to the other stage, enjoying all life's joys.
Remember when tempted to bust up a boy's lip and fight,
Do not choose this easy way, just do what is right.
Remember to prepare your resume', and just stay groomed and clean,
Be not be in disarray, state clearly what you mean.
If you have to fight at all, fight for the right things,
Fight for a better education and job and all the joy it brings,
Remember, pray for the things you need and in faith get rewards,
With a great future and destiny, by playing the right cards.
Never give up to fight for better opportunities and a good life my friend, be brave, be strong be bold, progress and strive for excellence.
