You Feel Life Is A Battle

You feel life is a battle and you are doing it tough
But you have never been homeless and you have never slept rough
You are what you think you are or make yourself out to be
And you must be very poor if you think you are that is how it seems to me
You do not have to look that hard or travel to elsewhere
To meet one far poorer than you there are plenty of them there
Living as homeless and sleeping rough in the poorer side of the town
The people with good reason in spirits to feel down
With your own home a nice wife two lovely young daughters a good job and good car
But despite this you have convinced yourself you are poor then poor you surely are
Poverty can be a relative thing as some are known to say
And the reality is compared to many you are wealthy though you don't see it that way
And when you say life for you is a battle your own self you deceive
And on the saying we are what we do think we are i for one do believe.
