[Verse 1]
See that man at the end of the street
He needs a little money and a bite to eat
But look at me I've got college loans
And I just pa**ed my limit on my cell phone
He needs a place to stay he needs a place to lay
He needs not to be alone at the end of the day
Yeah, He needs love
So I dug down deep into my jeans until I realized
All I had was a twenty
And just too much money
Too much to risk the guy probablyd get up and just use it for a fix
[Chorus]
So I found myself in the middle of the street
Step by step just marchin' to the beat
Not thinkin' bout no one, not bout anybody
Just stepping in the shoes of my own two feet
And theyre tied so tight
And theyre running my life
Cause they've convinced me Im the only one
[Verse 2]
People approaching me without hesitation
Asking me for some kind of donation
Give me a break, money dont grow on trees
I've got kids to feed, I've got a wife to please
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Im the one that matters Im the one that counts
Im still gaining ground Im still gaining ground
Yeah I am getting more and I ain't slowin' down
All for me
And theyre tied so tight
And they've ruined my life
Cause they convinced me that I was the only one
[Chorus]
[Outro]
