in their shoes - awfer lyrics

[verse 1]

i stand alone on this cold night shivering
the wind brushes by like a ghost cry whistling
teen guys bicker as a cheap fights finished spending each night kipping in the streets mind crippling
out in the rough broke street lights flickering
i’m rowdy and drunk and i’m pleading my innocence
the people i love see me as an invalid
i’m sick of it and i can’t get a job to get rid of this
i didn’t opt for a hard life
i guess the path i chose was a dark side to my scarred mind
i’ve watched the years p-ss by with these beers i’ve cried for my peers that have died in these streets
bare feet fiends weep, conscience pleads, but my addiction is screaming feed me
i’m seen as a freak and greedy
my neighbours are enemies i believe in the demon deeply
my dreams have deceived me now i’m nothing sitting on this curb side clutching
to drugs for the feeling of love man i’m clucking for something to hug me and feed me some comfort
i wonder, when it was when i went wrong
in school i was head strong
no home in this life i never dreamt of
no hope in this life i never dreamt of

[chorus]
when life gets bad and its tough
we need a helping hand from above but sometimes that hand it don’t come so keep your head up when your out in the rough
when life gets bad and its tough
we need a helping hand from above but sometimes that hand it don’t come so keep your head up when your out in the rough

[verse 2]

one morning i was woken by sunlight
i’d been having a couple of rough nights having trouble for sometime with some guys
i had a puffy and bust eye from some drunk fight over drugs i, didn’t feel like living anymore
i was sick of being poor and kipping on the floor, it was raw and then a stranger walked past
he must of felt the pain in my heart because he gave me a chance
he said that he owned a business, and his business once turn him from rags to riches
he knew about the homeless because his dad was a victim
and had a mad addiction to skag for a living
he said he lost him to the rancid system
someone stabbed and kicked him in his sleeping bag and binned him
and since he’s planned it different
said he wanted to help a man off the ground and fix him
give them the chance that his dad never had
i went back to his pad and met his family and that
i worked my fingers to the bone and brought a cheap flat
got off the drink and the drugs through rehab
man i’m proud i’ve become someone from down in the dumps and surrounded by drugs to a guy with a house and a son
that’s why you keep your head up when your out in the rough

[chorus]
