Lives are hard
In the poorest families
Every day is a struggle
To put food and drinks on the table
Education will get them free
To engage in meaningful employment
Yet for the poorest families
It is a struggle from dawn to night
They don’t give up
They don’t want to die
Life is so precious
They are willing to sacrifice
Living in the harshest conditions
They tell you don’t give up easily
Struggles are means to survive
Though for them
It will be many generations
Yet they don’t lose hope
They believe they have shelters
As long as they try to live
Give life a chance to survive
Scavenging in rubbish grounds
Looking for things to sell
Earning a little as the time goes
Yet they know
Life is a long way of struggle
The compassion of others
It will ease their toll and suffering
For tomorrow they don’t see the light
It is the endless struggles to survive
