We struggle from time to time And did the opposite of an optimist But hard work pays off I'm living proof and promising this Educate yourself so when you finally see some dollars and cents It won't go poof as soon as you make it It'll make it to your grandchildren's kids Cause they are the future We are the one that damaging it Abusing these opportunities with pollutions and contaminates And it don't make any damn sense Cause this movie doesn't have a sequel If you don't do for you and your kids then Do it for the rest of the people
