Look At Me

Look at Me He is just one of the many, a lonely man Striving to become whatever he can All I am is not what you choose to see If you seek a friend then look at me The old man sits on the corner all alone A next meal from where it comes unknown You look away, disgusted by what you see All he asks, don’t just walk by, look at me The drug addict lost within a world, forsaken Coursing through his blood all the drugs taken Don’t take pity on me, go, just leave me be Who are you to judge me, don’t look at me Remember, be grateful when your life is good And try to help those as much as you should Because life doesn’t come with any guarantee You maybe the one that asks, just look at me
