I知 Not Worried

I知 not worried if our fates are out of our hands,
why then sit and wring them, we could sieze the day.
I知 not worried if tommorrow doesn稚 come,
there痴 nothing we can do about it anyway.
I知 not worried. Though I can稚 say I believe
those millions keeping faith are sure of what is true.
I知 not worried. While we take each day as it comes,
we can squeeze joy from the mindless work we do.

I知 not worried. I could find myself beyond the brink
of  economic ruin anytime.
I知 not worried, though I知 fairly careful
I could find myself the victim of a violent crime.
I知 not worried, I could fall and break a leg,
and spend weeks on my back in certain agony.
I知 not worried, I could always skid an join the ranks
of those who died colliding with a tree.
