Street Dreams

f^^k what i write its not your fight RIGHT you're not the one who has to survive tonight she begs for a penny you sold her a dream telling her life is all that it seems you wear similar faces in many different places acting like you are sombody else you raise you're children not to be like me through their eyes i'm all they can see dirty deeds on her knees as he begs and pleads oral sex if you please but you will still catch a disease you go out to eat and blow fifty bucks can you imagine how many times she has to f^^K or suck in the back of a garbage truck YUCK her pride sells her short and so she cheats herself tying the noose from the self poverty lurks in every home some just hide it well the rich get richer the poor get none shoot i'm just trying to get some hope and life are in our hearts resting amongst our souls if this evil today continues to grow i don't know what we'll all do it's like voodoo cast upon me and you creating a spell we can't undo those were the days not so long ago that concentration camps were the only place to go they burned down their homes and kidnapped their men raping the women and children AGAIN and AGAIN today many are homeless sleeping under a bridge we can save one more life if we learn how to give selfish is the way of their heart born from the start as we laugh at the woman pushing a cart think hard think deep think in your sleep ask yourself are you unique
