N. N.

If I don't have food to eat, what are we gonna do?
If I don't have a place to sleep, it's not just to suffer
I know exactly where I am, I'm not crazy, no sir
I just live on the streets and no one gave me that

It's not always that great, sometimes it's really tough
Freedom's expensive, it ain't right for my age
So much cold, starving like a bird on a wire
I can tell who's a player and who's gonna make it out

To me, you're the crazy one
Who can never understand
That life is slipping away
And you can't catch up

I don't pay with a card, I just have a jacket
They don't like it when I laugh, I guess it makes them jealous
They say I make them feel sorry, I just check out their chains
Sorry, but I'm not the one who struggles to laugh

Working all day just to make a living
And what you earn gets spent on working
Talks about charity for their own peace of mind
Looks like a good Christian, but has a tiny heart

Their heart shrinks
While their mind runs away
'Cause their happiness
Is at the expense of others

I don't buy, I don't trade
I faint if I get tired
I'm not dumb, I'm not a fool
If I fall, I get back up
I always sing this song
And sometimes I have a drink
I don't have a religion
I don't believe in destiny
