Can't Break Free
Homeless man on the street
Asking for money
Caught up in my own stuff
Didn’t want him to bug me,
He said, “I know you hear me.”
As I kept walking, he said,

“Can’t break free
from the things that are killing me,
Can’t break free
From the hand life is dealing me”

So I reached in my pocket and gave him my loose change
Expected to hear some kind of big thanks
But then he gave me something that I really could use
Right then I saw myself walking in his shoes, he said,

“Can’t break free
from the things that are killing me,
Can’t break free
From the hand life is dealing me”

“Do you really think I wanna bug you?
Do you really think I wanna ask you for change?
Do you really think it’s my choice to be in this place?”

“Can’t break free
from the things that are killing me,
Can’t break free
From the hand life is dealing me”
