SEGUN RASAKI - Second Chance

Who needs you,
why do they call you second,
What is your chance,
When I fail to meet the expectations,
I mean those high standards,
I will call on you,
begging for you to come to my rescue.

When my teachers give grades,
Those grades that I cannot take home,
I shall yell for you,
to come and live in the hearts of my teachers,
Begging for them to give you to me.

When things go wrong in my life,
When relationships go bad,
I will ask of you to come.

When I fail to meet up,
with life's challenges,
I will take consollation in you.

I promise not to make excuses,
No excuses for my shortcomings.
All I am asking for is you,
My friend second chance.
