At the point of arrival, we have to plan for survival.
The devil threw a rock
the day I hit the clock
tried to prevent me from
entering the dock
anyway I made it to the block
What I found out was a
bunch of crock
I looked up at the creator
wondered why dad left the flock
Later on I was fretting
about the treatment I was getting
I wished I could enter another
setting
so I did a little regretting
for a long time there was
no netting
but no one could keep me
from betting
I won the bet
now here I sit
and I will not quit
