Book of Fools

The story of my life

This is a book of fools

Changed all the rules

I was a simple child

Not given a chance for success

They said I would be a loser at best

Couldn't complete with the rest

It was middle of the road

or take the highway charlie brown

Most people treated me like a clown

My pants was ragged and torn

My shirt had holes in it wasn't to be warn

People laughed at me when I was young

didn't give me a chance to prove I could express myself

or read out loud for a crowd this was not aloud

My Parents backed me up and said they were proud

They treated me like a spoiled child.

So as I grew older a certain pain was on my back

The pain of being pick on and kicked around

Life change for me one day I fought back you know

Took away my pain I was not a loser no more

They erased my name from the book of fools

Fixed some broken ribs and a bloody nose

And then I rose like a sky scraper a big building in the sky

No one could take away my pride I survived I came alive

I had friends who had friends 

and I made many more friends 

in the end
