So I was driving
I needed some things
Like some food and an oil change
Some shit like that
Watching a homeless man pan handling
While he standing on the side of a block
And I don't know what kinda life this man has been handling
And got me curious if he's been smoking some rocks
Although a part of me is feeling for him
The other saying just ignore him
Gotta focus on myself or I'll end up in his spot
So I just sit and meditate and pray for him some better days
And hopefully he finds his way or at least find him some socks
Now as I'm watching contemplating analyze this situation
A brand new corvette pulls up and comes to a stop
Like man what a funny thought the both of them 10 feet apart
It made me think back to a song by Kendrick Lamar
Called how much a dollar cost
The question is detrimental paralyzing my thoughts
I think he said it best
So now I'm trippin as I watch and have the lyrics of that song
Running round through my head
The man in that vet was starring straight ahead
As the homeless man was starting at him
In a moment I felt the pressure rise like
They were pissed at the position that each other were in
Maybe in a different world these two men would be friends
But sadly in reality the truth of life sinks in
As I continue to watch I feel it take away my grin, trust
Another day Another life
Another cost Another price
Another saying to myself
I can't give up I gotta fight
As I find the wrong and right
See more color than black and white
Seeing deeper than the surface
That be blocking up your sight
So we just get by
Look up to a sky that cycles through these days and nights
With thoughts on our minds
Like do we even have the time
To chase these dreams before we die
Can't waste it all on what we like
Too much going on
So guess I'll see if you try
So it all keeps going by
Feel so many ways
I guess that I'll cry
I'll cry
The longer I sat there
Shit just kept getting worse
I couldn't stop thinking
Still sitting there watching as I was waiting for the light
Just waiting for one of them to make a move or maybe fight
The thoughts of the choices they might've made to be here
Was anything but light but I couldn't stop thinking like
Who's had it harder
Maybe the man in the vet grinded all his life
Just to make it out the poverty line
And that's why he's feeling this spite
Like if he could do it what be stopping another guy
Except he might not know how much it takes to put a man on the street
Got nothing to his name not even socks on his feet
Standing there with a sign after putting aside his pride
Just hoping that someone can help him escape the feelings he's got inside
But shit we all got em
There's probably some successful people who's had it harder
Who's taking all their hardships and made it some wine from water
But just like how did they do it
Maybe their smarter
Maybe they they just had help or
Maybe they were pushin harder
I don't know
We're all different
And it shows
Got me curious bout myself and what kinda
Things it'd take to be next to those
People on the corner or those hero's in the methadone
Shoutout kid rock for show me some blessings yo
But that's just how this story goes
Same kinda shit that I was hearing some years ago
And like this world it goes around fo sho
Right there from that road to my head then out my mouth it's told
But all the time I wish that I could do some more
Another day Another life
Another cost Another price
Another saying to myself
I can't give up I gotta fight
As I find the wrong and right
See more color than black and white
Seeing deeper than the surface
That be blocking up your sight
So we just get by
Look up to a sky that cycles through these days and nights
With thoughts on our minds
Like do we even have the time
To chase these dreams before we die
Can't waste it all on what we like
Too much going on
So guess I'll see if you try
So it all keeps going by
Feel so many ways
I guess that I'll cry
I'll cry
See as I kept on looking this shit became less funny
And got me kinda pissed off at this idea we call money
Cause I'm seeing two of the same breed looking out with the same greed
And not giving a f*ck of the things that they both need
But finally that light turned green
Kinda like the kind that homeless man thought he would see
Instead I turned right past them while they doing the same old routine
And now it was time for me to spend some of mine on some shit I don't need
So there I went right past that kfc
Pulled into valvoline but man these thoughts were still eating at me
Like I couldn't get em past me
And all this shit made me feel nasty
Like how the f*ck am I suppose to see some shit like that and just be happy
Must be some empath shit
Like I don't even know these men but man it felt like I did
Made me wanna repent all my sins
And had me thinking of ways we could redo how we live
Like holy f*ck I can't take it no more and right as I was bout to lose my shit
A calm voice said pull up to that bay door
Pulled in and got asked in different ways if I could pay more
For things that they could give me
I told them nah but thank you really
So I exchanged em for that oil change
And on my way they sent me
But as I pulled out I knew I'd be going past that corner
Went and got some chicken for myself but nothing extra on that order
So now I was the one pulling up to that light
I looked over to the homeless man and felt a fear building in my spine
This man was covered in facial tattoos
They were demonic with upside down crosses
That had me worried what he'd do
But time was ticking so I know I had to choose
It was either be a hypocrite or do
Something to help out the dude
So I grabbed my wallet there were three ones and a twenty
I pulled out the 3 ones cause it was the least that I could do
Rolled down my window half way and called for the man
He was sitting now looking defeated with head hanging down
With sign in hand
So when he looked up and saw me gesturing with money
He jumped up with an expression that had me feeling kinda funny
But when his eyes met mine I saw they were bluer than the sky
I felt them pierce right to my heart like he wasn't a normal guy
All of a sudden I was stuck looking in them like I was paralyzed
Staring up at this man like I had known him my whole life
He smiled big and grabbed the money gently
Then he put it to me simply
He said thank you sir now I definitely have enough to eat
And I could hear it in his voice he meant that from somewhere deep
I told him no problem and wish I could do more
He told me god bless you as I drove off from that light
Now nothing sitting right with
Strangest feelings I've ever known
Had me crying the whole way home
Trust
Another day Another life
Another cost Another price
Another saying to myself
I can't give up I gotta fight
As I find the wrong and right
See more color than black and white
Seeing deeper than the surface
That be blocking up your sight
So we just get by
Look up to a sky that cycles through these days and nights
With thoughts on our minds
Like do we even have the time
To chase these dreams before we die
Can't waste it all on what we like
Too much going on
So guess I'll see if you try
So it all keeps going by
Feel so many ways
I guess that I'll cry
I'll cry
Proverbs 19 17
Who ever is kind to the poor
Lends to the lord
And he shall reward them
For what they have done
