\n…you have to work within the system sometimes
\n… and learn how to play
\n… work to change the system
\n… for a time,staying in it
\n… and realize, things may get far worse
\n…before they get better<\/p>\n
\n
\n… perhaps we would fare better
\n…if we sacrificed a little of ourselves; sometimes
\n… to learn how to beat it
\n… to learn how to play the system
\n… the only way out is to play
\n…even if at first things appear to\u00a0get worse<\/p>\n
\n
\n… life has been worse
\n…life can be better
\n… life is unbearable, sometimes
\n… you cannot avoid it
\n…if you cannot work within the system
\n… you will find, that you will go nowhere, without knowing how to play<\/p>\n
\n
\n… life works that way; we are all characters taking part in a play
\n… if we do not learn our parts, life can get worse,
\n… before it can get better,
\n… sometimes;
\n… you can fight to change it
\n… but you have nothing, if you cannot work the system<\/p>\n
\n
\n… sometimes you can try and break free from the system
\n… once you learn how to play
\n… you manage to break free; sometimes
\n… and once you know better
\n… you will know, how not to make things worse
\n… only then will you be able to escape, and be free of it<\/p>\n
\n
\n… only when you can work within the system, you can work to break it
\n… the oppression, and the fixed system
\n… the games we must all play
\n… for worse
\n… and for better
\n… we don’t have a choice, sometimes<\/p>\n
\n
\n…you must sacrifice sometimes … play in hopes to win it
\n…it is the game you must play\u00a0 … for your freedom, by shattering the system
\n… but remember, it may get worse …before it gets better<\/p>\n
