Deserving What Is Wanted



Deserving what is wanted.
To want, want, want.
She says,
I want, what I want and from you to want.
He says,
I too want from you to deserve it and flaunt.

They both are workers.
And faith believers.
To know together,
Their endeavors will succeed.
With...
Sacrifice and sweat equity.

Hope is no joke,
For those who have no time to mope.
Hope is no joke,
For those who want what it is they get.
Without sitting down,
On behinds wasting time just to wish.

And she says,
I want what I want to deserve it to want.
And he too agrees,
That together they'll succeed.

They both are workers.
And faith believers.
To know together,
Their endeavors will succeed.
With prayer, sacrifice and much applied,
Sweat equity.

So they get what they want,
To want it and flaunt.
And together knowing it is deserved.

So they get what they want to want and want.
Knowing what they have,
Was not from charity.
To receive!
Or believe...
Having what is wanted is without,
Sweat equity!
