HOMELESS ONE

Who am I to render myself worthy
Am I not my own worst enemy
The scum from the earth 

Is this not in actual fact my worth
Lost in a being of madness
In a myraid of sadness
Who would care anyway right
Why be bothered with my plight..

I am but a homeless man
With no future - no plan
This was not always me
No longer could I face reality
All the hurt and the pain
Need to wipe it from my brain
Don't want to feel anymore
Deservant to sleep on the cold
cement floor...

So easy to blame society
For what became of me
Indulging in spirits keeps me warm
Cigarettes my friend in this storm
Drugs numbing the senses I don't
have to think
Deeper into my created hell I sink
Before you look upon me and judge
Careful you do not end up in this sludge...

It's been mighty cold these last few days
Many times I've tried to change my ways
I look away but my tears flow freely
I lost them - lost the ones I love you see
Why should I be - I don't deserve to feel
Life without them - this pain is just to real...

But I'm tired and see no way out
Jesus..Jesus..I've heard what you're about
Hear this voice I scream.. take pity on me
Please show this old fool your mercy
As a lay my head on the cold cement floor
I am no longer alone
For this is the night Jesus picked me up
and took me home...
