The Luck Of The Honest
Music by Matthew Beilis Lyrics by Ryan Bennett This thing called life isn't justified. For the opportunities seem to hide And only those who have cheated and lied Are ushered to the front and inside. Is dog-eat-dog the way these days? The pushers and shovers complete the maze While the honest man is lost in the haze Receiving no glory and no praise Maybe the struggle is what makes you great The breaks are there but you're always too late “What if's” and “If only's” are the phrases you hate but hopefully you'll be treated well by fate. I've realized that handouts are not for me Hard work not luck is my path you see But through it all I'll always be The man who sees the glass half full instead of empty Perhaps my pockets won't be filled with green For in the river of wealth no hands are clean Hands full of riches by any mean Letras de cancionesPaths which to me seem to be far too obscene When the time comes that I'm old and gray I'll want to look back on my life and say I'm damn proud I decided to play The game of life the right way.
