Ever

You ever given change to a stranger in need,

A man on the floor in the rain who begs n pleads.

Spare some change he asks from the floor,

Do you help him out or walk past n ignore?


Maybe if you had to walk a mile in his shoes,

You might know what its like to sing the blues.

You ever rode up to a food bank,

In your expensive Jeep being rude.


Taken all the quality n left the chaff,

Robbed the poor so they had naff?

Maybe if you had to walk a mile in their shoes,

You might know what its like to have to choose.


Ever been in an argument that got out of hand,

A mistaken fight totally unplanned.

Struck him in defence n sparked him out,

Dead on impact so ur jailed for nought.


Maybe if you had to walk a mile in their shoes,

You might know what its like to lose.

Choose, lose,

tied in twos.

Just be a good person,

N don't just think of you.
