As I walk along these streets
|
I see a man that walks alone
|
Distant echo of people's feet
|
He has no place to call his own
|
A shot rings out from a roof overhead
|
A crackhead asks for change nearby
|
An old man lies in an alleyway dead
|
A little girl lost just stands there and cries
|
|
What would you do, if it was you
|
Would you take everything
|
For granted like you do
|
|
A boy just 13 on the corner for sale
|
Swallows his pride for another hit
|
Overpopulation there's no room in jail
|
But most of you don't give a s***
|
That your daughters are porno stars
|
And your sons sell death to kids
|
You're so lost in your little worlds
|
Your little worlds you'll never fix
|
|
You turn away
|
As I walk along the streets
|
Soaking up the acid rain
|
Underneath the taxi cabs
|
I hear the streets cry out in vain
|
