Do you know what it's like to be hungry and thirsty
without any money at all
Do you know what it's like to have no home or shelter
with no one close by you can call
Do you know what it's like to be walking for hours
yet still you know you must go on
Do you know what it's like to keep faith in you inside
when all of your faith...outside...has gone
I know what it is to do all these things
I lived through the pride and the shame
I reached for the stars and I fell through the floor
still to come more of the same
My wealth is my diary, my strength, my experience
my soul you will find in my song
My pride is the difference I'll make to my loved ones
if I live my life......keeping faith strong
Do you know what it's like to cry for your loved ones
but still you feel you let them down
Do you know what it's like to walk cities of strangers
with no one familiar around
Do you know what it's like to sleep in a subway
and try to escape from the cold
Do you know what it's like to have no state support you
To win or die....on your own
I know what it is...etc.
Do you know what it's like to depend on creation
like writing this song for your ears
Do you know what it's like to live life as adventure
not ekeing it out with your fears
Do you know what it's like to have friends who will aid you
through love of the person you are
Do you know what it's like to have richness of spirit
and thankfulness...for getting this far
I know what it is...etc.
