being on the streets

by williammurphy

being on the streets

it ain"t easy 

sleeping on the corner

i used to sing she homeless 

now im singing im homeless

out on the street stress and depress 

im in a big ol mess not knowing if there gonna be food for

me or somewhere safe for me to sleep 

or when will be my next shower life is not a game know that wake 

up people one blink and thats can be you
