Imagine being just a kid
No hand to hold, no thing you did
Broken by fights, cold empty walls
Hunger bites, nobody calls

You hit the streets, you don’t belong
No guide, no mentor, nothing strong
No lessons learned, no wisdom gained
Just nights of fear and endless pain

Pre-Chorus
So when you see them stumble, fall
Don’t act like you would stand at all

Before you point your finger, see
The life they’ve lived, the scars they keep
Could you survive in their shoes?
Or would you break, worn out and used?
Before you judge, before you blame
Ask yourself if you’d do the same

If you grew up in warmth and care
With love to give and love to share
Thank God for what you’ve got inside
And pray for those who’ve been denied

For every soul that drifts in pain
For every life that’s bound in chains
Before you call them weak or wrong
Remember life can hurt too long

So when you see them stumble, fall
Don’t act like you would stand at all

Before you point your finger, see
The life they’ve lived, the scars they keep
Could you survive in their shoes?
Or would you break, worn out and used?
Before you judge, before you blame
Ask yourself if you’d do the same

No one asks for shattered nights
No one chooses endless fights
Think before you throw your stone
Some hearts are heavy as a stone

Before you point your finger, see
The life they’ve lived, the scars they keep
Could you survive in their shoes?
Or would you break, worn out and used?
Before you judge, before you blame
Ask yourself if you’d do the same
