In My Shoes

Look into your heart
gaze within your soul
 Like a mirror
look within
know your past
know your sins
 Judge not what you don't know
illusion sets its theme
becoming whatever you perceive
 Looking down
prepared to cast stones
only by what you hear
 Though never living a day
in the life of another
never filling their shoes
