I wish I could escape my body

And fly away to a distant location

Where no one knows my story

Only to return on a different accession!

This life can be hard, my friend!

This life can be rough, like a fiend!

Today, we cry about the merciless power

Yet we pay no regard to what we do in this hour.

We rob, burn, kill and loot

Yet we forget that tomorrow life will give us a boot!

This life can be hard, my friend!

This life can be rough, like a fiend!

So, we truly cry poverty and indignation

But we destroy our own nation

Is it because we feel we have nothing to lose?

As around our necks, we tie the noose!

This life can be hard, my friend!

This life can be rough, like a fiend!

I have learnt never to rely on anyone

Especially those who claim to care for everyone

Depending on the next person…

Will always give you misery every season!

This life can be hard, my friend!

This life can be rough, like a fiend!

So, I wake up from my nightmare

Only to live in it with all the same scare

In the heat of the moment

Vileness is our only comment!

This life can be hard, my friend!

This life can be rough, like a fiend!
