the city folks


The city folks
The every day hardship
Facing the traffic
Facing the jams
Get caught in flash floods
Cars get stalled money walked
They complain they curse
It is still the old routine
Heavy rain pour the drains clog

The city folks
Waking up in dawn
Return at night
Fighting the every day jam
Fighting the crawl of impatience
But big bucks pull along
Dreaming one day to make it
Many get sucked into its void
Sometimes the sobbing echo
The stabbing of the fall

But the city folks
Living in it they learned
How to stay relevant
Learning through experience
Crafting the skills over time
Live and go through changing landscape
Time change folks die
New ones come along
The same song will be aired
The city folks learn to accept
