Dreaming big

"Dream big" she told me,"you can do anything"
I find it hard to believe
First I had to spend 12 years until graduating
Which I know it's difficult to perceive.

When I finished college they never told me,
That it would be hard for me to find a job,
After leaving the state I was residing.
There was no way I could rise to the top.

I met a woman, so kind, so precious
She gave me a reason to be a man.
Even when the entire planet left us,
We will stay side by side to the end.

And now I sit here, dealing cards for money
Only part time, and she's not working
Digging for coins for when we get hungry,
Watching our backs for big brother lurking.

All I want is a chance to not just "dream big"
I want to "win big"
