You see him on the streets
He's always there
No one has ever heard him speak
Although he'll stare
Soon very soon he? in his mouth
And you'll be surprised of the words that come out
He might be a father that you turned your back on
Or your brother that haven't seen in so long
You see him on the streets whith rats for clothes, how did he end up in the streets no one knows where he is from or what is about
But you'd be surprised if? in his mouth
He might be a prophet, that you read of in book
or your savior, despite him clothes
So don't you ever jump to judge
don't you ever jump to judge
Looks may be deceiving, but every man's got their meaning
I can tell you, you might end up in he's shoes
On the corner singing the blues
don't you ever jump to judge, look beyond the cover of before you jump to judge
Looks may be deceiving, but every man's got their meaning
He might be a father that you turned your back on
Or your brother that your finger's point on
The woman in the street that you pass by, is somebody's mother, somebody's wife
I can't blind my eyes, I'm crying inside
People criticize who stereotype
Might be a mother that you turned your back on
Or your sister that your finger's point on
We are the people of the streets, we all are one
No matter how you sit, a one nation
And soon very soon, we've got to be strong
And look beyond this mass confusion
It might be creation that you turned your back on
Or your heaven?
So don't you ever jump to judge, look beyond the cover before you jump to judge
Looks may be deceiving, but every man's got their meaning
So don't you ever jump to judge, look beyond the cover before you jump to judge
Looks may be deceiving, but every man's got their meaning.
