I work so much
I'm losing my sanity
but that's just the man in me
representing my family
and it's a man they need
3 mouths to feed
I know their mom's doubting me
but, I'm succeeding proudly

I took on a 2nd full time job
cause my check, child support did rob
they call it a payment, but
if it was a payment, i would have gave it up
voluntarily, but in all honesty
they are jacking me
won't even give my income tax back to me

they expect me to live
off of 150 dollars a week
but hey
if ya play, ya pay
but i pay, and still raise
my children everyday

I'm working 16 hours a day
my boys don't understand why I'm always away
if only they knew
the stress i go through
about paying bills
getting prescriptions filled
keeping the fridge filled
buying stuff for their fundraisers at school
having extra cash so they have fun stuff to do
paying a babysitter
its starting to make me bitter

but at the end of the day
when I'm finally home
i sit in my chair
all alone
my kids are in bed
and i look around
at what i have accomplished
i know it would not have been possible
without them

Good job...on the writing, and what you're doing and
accomplishing every day. I hope everything gets easier.
