JUST LIKE THE STRAY STREET ROOSTER

Just like the stray street rooster,
Worries aren't going to be intertwined like a rollercoaster,
As long as the belly is filled and safe from hunger,
Nothing really matters but the dark art of survival.

Just like the stray street rooster,
It's always about safety like the soft riding of a scooter,
Though slow and steady in all aspects,
The probability of survival is high than life itself expects.

Just like the stray street rooster,
Freedom of expressions is a plain and open matter,
No law enforced on the way life should be lived,
No consultation needed for the fear of being short-lived.

Just like the stray street rooster,
The pace for success is always faster,
It's always every man for himself,
Nobody to wait for the other when life decides to close up any of its sudden shelf.
