Thought For Food Bounce
on the corner, in the alley
under the bridge
on top of the sidewalk vent
..with your children....
it probably seems
everybody
is telling you to give up
pushing the ledge inward
crushing it like a cardboard box
the one you lay in
..the one you live in..
with the looks on their face
and the lack of change
feel you can't get away
..get away from this place
but if you could just hold on,
if you could just survive
..survive today..
..then maybe...
there's another twist of fate
what goes up
can come down
and what hits the ground
might just bounce
so brace yourself
and look out for recovery
so brace your kids
don't give up and in
and hold out for recovery
open sunroof, in your valley
many drive by
dry throat near the fountain kept
..by security...
i can see it seems
everybody
does pretend you don't exist
crowding around the wealth
crushing you like a cardboard box
the one you lay in
..the one you live in..
with the looks on their face
and the lack of change
feel you can't get away
..get away from this place
but if you could just hold on,
if you could just survive
..survive today..
..then maybe...
there's another twist of fate
what goes up
can come down
and what hits the ground
might just bounce
so brace yourself
and look out for recovery
so brace your kids
don't give up and in
and hold out for recovery
and i hope people out there listening
give a second thought to their reasoning
when they pass you by without a glance
turning their heads away
what goes up
can come down
and what hits the ground
might just bounce
so brace yourself
and look out for recovery
so brace your kids
don't give up and in
and hold out for recovery
