Life Isn't Fair



Life isn't fair​It just isn't​
No matter how much you try​​
You may be treated wrong​If you try to get a better place It

may work but Sometimes doesn't​
It may matter to you, but others just don’t care
​​You may write songs​
In them, a hero may have risen​

But why are their bullies why ​​​
Life isn't fair​It just isn't
​No matter how much you try​​

So come along
​And listen
​If you dare

​​Like a deer's prongs​
You must make a decision
​Of where to fly

​​If there is something wrong
​You need to make a revision
If you climb those steep stairs​
You will fly​​​​​
