You Made It!

They are rough on you
Play tough on you
They talk behind your back
To coax you from your track

They mock your path
You feel their wrath
They do it everyday
And walk away

They sneer at you
Put fear in you
When you’re not scared
You’re spared

You have a good life
You made it down the difficult path alive
Proud of what you became
You beat the plague of same
