A tenth of bread..jimmy

See those people covered in dirt,
on the streets like rats,
empty eyes looking onward,
nothing to live for..
I pitty their souls.
I don't believe what I just heard,
do you really think these poor people are animals?
with every one you see, there is a story..
don't judge with your eyes only,
for there's no doubt your eyes are deceived.
Do you not see the childern that are with them?
Yes, I do, and how dare they bring them up in this filth.
there you go again,
blasting that which you know little about,
my point is those childern are too young to make major mistakes,
your heart has to hurt for them.
It hurts me, I've done well in my life, why do I have to walk by them?
you put your faith in riches, when tomorrow everything could be gone,
and then you would find your place with them,
along side of them, asking for just a tenth of bread,
my security is not in my wealth alone..
mark my words, I will never be poor like them!
oh my friend, your already worse off then those people,
for they are without money,
but you live without mercy,
and a man can get money..
it's much more difficult to gain a heart.
Good day, sir!
Good day.
