Under Fire
When Superman Isn't Around
We are here on the ground
Finding a day to day struggle
Even the little things that become a hassle
There is much we can do
To keep our spirits up
Pull ourselves together
As if we were made out of cotton
Put each piece in place
One sinks into the other
After awhile we see some progress
Things can get messy
We are not perfect and never claimed to be
Look around and see what we have
Not just all the material things in our life
The people that make up are our family
Don't forget our friends
Each person has their own faults
We love them just the same
So as I go to work and try to think of ways to stretch my last dollar
I also know I am not alone
There are times when work becomes a hassle
There are also those times where work becomes my haven
Where I can do my job and meet people who I have known for years
I receive comfort and friendship
Will everything change drastically tomorrow
I doubt it very much
I do know each day is better than the one that came before
Because we are smarter
We are wiser than just a few minutes ago
As we take on life
Life gives back
In so many areas we fail to notice
Over time things will surface
The job that I do today
Will help me
Leading me to a better and brighter tomorrow
So for all those who are struggling with issues they have not solved
I hear you
I am giving my all time best and so can you
