As I walk along these streets
I see a man that walks alone
Distant echo of people's feet
He has no place to call his own
A shot rings out from a roof overhead
A crackhead asks for change nearby
An old man lies in an alleyway dead
A little girl lost just stands there and cries

[Chorus]
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
And most of you don't give a s___
That your daughters are p___o stars
And your sons sell death to kids
You're so lost in your little worlds
Your little worlds you'll never fix

[Chorus]

You turn away (x4)
As I walk along these streets
Soaking up the acid rain
Underneath the taxi cabs
I hear the streets cry out in vain

[Chorus]
