Ghosts and Games

Got an email from Mr. Too-Good-To-Be-True, Said his check's in the mail, but it's déjà vu. Saw the scam a mile away, learned that trick, Dodged another bullet, but it makes me sick. And then there are those who want to chat, Book a slot but vanish like a Cheshire cat. Is this business a game with a missing rule book? Feels like I'm swimming in an empty brook. Yet with every trial, with every shove, I hold the line, fueled by dreams above. These leads need answers, but don't know the quiz, Searching for solutions in a foggy abyss. They want a leader, a guiding charm, But solving riddles ain't enough, got codes to disarm. Can't solve problems with shadows, not on a whim, In this guessing game, patience wears thin. Is this business a game with a missing rule book? Feels like I'm swimming in an empty brook. Yet with every trial, with every shove, I hold the line, fueled by dreams above. Balancing costs with gains, a delicate dance, Calculating truths in a world of chance. Acquiring jobs and the revenue they bring, Still seeking harmony, that gainful ring. The wisdom of business, elusive and sly, But I'm learning the ropes, reaching for the sky. Is this business a game with a missing rule book? Feels like I'm swimming in an empty brook. Yet with every trial, with every shove, I hold the line, fueled by dreams above. Questions linger like ghosts in the mist, Was starting this journey a gamble, a twist? Yet there's a flame within, too bright to snuff, Every setback's a lesson, every edge is tough. Unraveling puzzles on this curvy track, I'll learn these rules and never look back. Is this business a game with a hidden code? Playing with heart, on this rocky road. Though the rules are blurred, though the path is tough, I'll chart my own course; hope's more than enough. In this puzzle of life, I slowly ascend, With every challenge, new strengths I defend. For dreams are whispers shouting untamed, In the game of hustle, unrestrained, unashamed.
