K-Rino - No Walls lyrics
[K-Rino - No Walls lyrics]
No roof, no walls, no, no halls
Imagining having no way to get
Warm when it’s cold and when it’s hot
There’s no escape from heat
When temperatures grow
Feeling hopeless and depressed is just
A part of the deal
And you become dependent on strangers
For water and meals
Every night you’re sleeping on streets
That ain’t even safe
No bathrooms available, you can’t even bathe
So you struggle through the long
Day with low hygiene
On top of that you barely got
Clothes and those not clean
People walk and drive by you
Displaying their blessings
And it’s rare when any of
‘em acknowledge your presence
They just keep going
Showing no regard for the poor
You’ve been there so long
They don’t even notice no more
When I see ‘em on the city streets
What does it mean to me?
The image of people suffering is
Part of the scenery watching it up close is
Heartbreaking without a doubt
The part of society everybody forgot
About ‘cause they got
No roof, no walls, no rooms, no halls
Hope you understanding the message
I’m tryna show y’all, it's
No roof, no walls, no rooms, no halls
Hope you understanding the message
I’m tryna show y’all tell me why
People always pass me by
(every single day, every single night)
’til we die
They see us and they still deny (C'mon, yeah)
Everyday morale decreases the
Deeper they drown
You look down on ‘em and not
Because they sleep on the ground
How can you think you better than
The homeless women or men
When you’re a lost job away
From the condition they’re in?
So in your mind
You put ‘em all in the same category
You think they’re all bums and dopeheads
You don’t know their story
Your picture is just a small part
Believe it’s bigger
Some lived in big homes with
Families and made six figures
Served in the armed forces
Got college degrees
Others with more knowledge than most
People you’ll probably see
But when you look at ‘em
You see people who have no value
Not thinking that one day
The same fate might grab you
The level of misfortune
Do you know the extent?
You ever seen three people
Living in one tent?
The smell of urine in the wind
It’s a sad display
And people laying there everyday wasting
Away ‘cause they got
No roof, no walls, no rooms, no halls
Hope you understanding the message
I’m tryna show y’all, it's
No roof, no walls, no rooms, no halls
Hope you understanding the message
I’m tryna show y’all tell me why
People always pass me by
(every single day, every single night)
’til we die
They see us and they still deny (C'mon, yeah)
The city ain’t doin’ nothin’
They won’t take onus
Money used for everything except
Helping the homeless
New stadiums, buildings
It’s road construction
But the number living outside
There’s no reduction some of ‘em have mental
Sicknesses and health conditions
City officials be trippin’, they won’t help
But listen
Hard to be self-sufficient and get on track
When you lose your way and nobody
Will help you get back
God bless you if you walkin’
Down that long street
I salute the ones who been there
And got back on feet
It’s kinda crazy when I see ‘em
In a group or alone some of ‘em be in better
Spirit's than people with homes
If you never saw it as
Humbling you gotta believe me
People with real struggles make you
See your problems are easy
Next time you see ‘em
Look at ‘em and feel their pain
And you should be ashamed if after that
You still complain ‘cause they got
No roof, no walls, no rooms, no halls
Hope you understanding the message
I’m tryna show y’all, it's
No roof, no walls, no rooms, no halls
Hope you understanding the message
I’m tryna show y’all tell me why
People always pass me by
(every single day, every single night)
’til we die
They see us and they still deny (C'mon, yeah)
