Hustler

I was browsing the web randomly, trying to find something interesting to read. I visited poemhunter.com as I usually do when I'm in the mood for some poetry. I came across an interesting piece entitled "Hustler" by Adetimilehin Inioluwa Victor (VicAdex). I related to it somehow so I thought I'd share it. So here it is..

I was born like every other

My first tears gave them laughter

Soon things will change for better

They are vivid hope every supper

Life goes short every time like summer

Idle me just make the dudes poorer

It then stuck me I got to go smarter

Aren't jobs but to earn as a hustler

Real men have to hustle

No ride to success in a shuttle

I’ll make it in the rubble

To live the dream in the success bubble

Thing get to idle waiters

Only things we left behind

We are the hustler knights

Hunting for success our right

No shot no trigger no bullet

Success will come chasing pants down

When we start running the working town

That will be the hustler crown
