a pirate, a poet #

dApawn and a king d

and over and out #

# I know one thing #

# Each time I find myself #

# Flat on my face #

# Yes, I pick myself up #

# Don't you know

I pick myself up #

# And get back in the race #

- # That's life That's life #

# And I can't deny it #

# Many times

I've thought of cuttin'out #

# But my heart just
