If
I fail you
It
is because I couldn't be
A
better man
If
I fail you
It
is because I didn't have
A
better health plan
If
I fail you
It
is because I couldn't see
A
brighter future
If
I fail you
It
is because I couldn't afford
My
daughter's tutor
If
I fail you
It
is because our triple digit income
Can't
fill the pantry
If
I fail you
It
is because my ammunition belt
Is
empty
If
I fail you
It
is because our crops are dying
While others have plenty
If
I fail you
It
is because disease
Depletes
me
If
I fail you
It
is because systems have corrupted
Me
discretely
If
I fail you
It
is because the detonator
On
my jacket misfired
If
I fail you
It
is because I am strung out and
Totally
wired
If
I fail you
It
is because my will
Is
leached by advertising
If
I fail you
It
is because my dreams
Have
undergone downsizing
If
I fail you
It
is because the politicians
Have
bought me
If
I fail you
It
is because the Left Wing
Has
deserted me
If
I fail you
It
is because the Right
Is
tearing itself apart
If
I fail you
It
is because I have a condition
Of
the heart
If
I fail you
It
is because God does not exist
There
is no redemption
If
I fail you
It
is because God does exist
There
is still no redemption
If
I fail you
Don't
be surprised; help is on its way
I'm
human, only human
Failure is written in my DNA
