I look north,
I turn south,
I focus on west,
I fix on east,
Everywhere I find cheats.
In the hands of my co born,
My inheritance is torn,
In the clutches of my in laws,
My progress thaws.
Everywhere I see cheats.
The legality is strong,
The execution is wrong,
The swindling is quick,
They squander in a flick.
Everywhere I cross cheats .
I am in despair,
I am unaware,
I wish to condemn.
I say damn,
Everywhere I meet cheats.
To come out, I contemplate
To get my due , I conjugate,
To succeed , I struggle,
To live ,I juggle,
I see cheats all around.
