DO THE IMPOSSIBLE

[Jaylee]

*

They say the odds are stacked against us

Cause I've got to make a difference in this life

With my one voice, one heart, two hands, we can

It didn't help that they were otherwise welcoming and polite or that Simon had trouble believing Kaylee. The latter made her burst into tears.

“It's not right! They make me feel like a country hick! You could stand up for me!”

Simon held her, “I can't understand it. Mother and Father always said we
