Sometimes trying just ain't good enough

What can combat oppression?

A degree ?

Money?

Hard work?

Nope.

Trying just ain't good enough.

Love?

Being Caring?

Kindness?

Uh uh, no.

Trying still ain't good enough.

Fighting for justice?

Voting?

Speaking out?

Ugh, nada.

Tired of trying, because trying just ain’t good enough.
