RIGHT TO EARN THE PRIVILEGE
So many things are not human rights,
leading to demands and causing fights,
the nation sits with little hands folded,
spitting like serpents while leaders are scolded.
Life is a privilege and not a right,
a gift of birth that brought us light,
so too is our education,
if it's even right for life's situation.
A house comes as a result of hard work,
it's not a right or a casual perk,
it's something that's earned and deeply respected,
with water and power that can't be neglected.
Nations become ugly and lazy and bad,
spitting there venom while going mad,
tighter and tighter we are shackled in chains,
demanding rights that bring us no gains.
