Have you ever hit rock bottom?
Have you lived in the streets?
Have you slept on the sidewalk?
Scared by everyone you meet
You've never have to face the winter 
While you’re living in the street
Around a drum pan lit with fire
That's where you get your heat
You’ve never have to walk the night
With daylight out of sight
So broken and so destitute
Facing all kind of nasty attitude
People who talk don't know
‘Cause people who know don't talk
How can you see in the dark
While you’re standing in the light


Have you ever hit rock bottom?
Have you lived out in the street?
Have you slept on the sidewalk?
Scared by everyone you meet
People who talk don't know
‘cause people who know don't talk
How can you see in the dark
when you’re standing in the light
You said you’re speaking for the poor
With that I’m not sure
Have you ever hit rock bottom
Do you know how it feels?
Have you slept on the sidewalk
Where to eat you have to steal
How can you say who’s wrong
When you don't know who is right
