As i walk along these streets
I see a man that walks alone
Distant echo of peoples feet
He has no place to call his own
A shot rings out from a roof over head
A crack head 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 shit
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
What would you do, if it was you
Would you take everything for granted like you do?
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
What would you do, if it was you
Would you take everything for granted like you do?
