Ratrace



Pathetic human ratrace,
Their life consists of a rigid
Set of goals that have to be achieved,
They have to have something to judge your
Progress by,
Your progress in their structure of
Objectives,
Everyone must be accounted for,
Who’s successful?
Who’s a failure?
There’s nothing wrong with ambition
As long as it’s your own,
Not the pressure they put on you,
The pathetic human ratrace expects you to
Conform,
But what are they going to do when the
kids have left home and the mortgage is paid?
