Downtown
Downtown
By Street Cries
Its spring but I still feel a cold breez
Phone in my hand feeling close to freez
Buses passing by people walking afaid to say hi
On the way to the day to day grind
The homless looking for hope to find
Instead they find dope and place to recline
Sad faces with tormented mind
Seems like no one cares about those left behind
Seems like no one dares to lead them to sunshine
It's not their affair as they continue with a ignoring stare
Pretending to be unaware
That its a human standing there
With issues they can't seem to bear
Driving by looking out of windshields no glare
Wearing designer clothes no tear warm or cold air
Right across the street where city officials and business owners meet
Rangerovers and Cadillac with new feet
Unable to see cause their vision is bleek
Making million dallor decision with out a thought for homeless mothers and starving children
Passion is lacking for those with drug habits
So they get into expensive cars labeling them savage peace
