You dont know what it is to be ignored. To be played. To be left alone when you have nothing left. To live on the streets. I am the man at the liqour store. I was like you once... But i was kicked out of my home by my wife. I hope next time you see me at the store youre kind enough to open your wallet and give me a dollar. I havent eaten in a week.
sincerely, the guy you kicked for passing out from hunger on the sidewalk.
this song is very valid today and it is a message that is being heard loud and clear to the majority of people in the world. They say that our choices are what causes us to be poor or rich but god forbid you ever have to make those choices or lose something through no fault of your own. Luck plays a big part in how you end up and this song says that so much.
you know those people that many of us call bums or hobos in your town that everyone makes jokes bout and picks on?... have u ever sat down and talked with them and find out how they got to that point?... dont judge who u dont know...
i wish they wouldnt bleep songs in my opinon wall the bleeding hearts that dont want to hear swear words turn ur radio off, ipod off, anything used for listening to music and go f-urself words are words they have meanings and they bring meaning to songs like this.
the homeless man gets me the most... most of us don't even know why they are out there or what their names are. That's the saddest part. Most of the time, it's not even because of drugs. They are mentally ill or had some kind of tragedy and can't seem to get back on their feet. They are ppl too. At least say hello and ask their name. Smile. something. We are all human.
@parrottfamily3 Thank you, us as a society has to be able to have empathy to have any progress. I know what it's like to be poor, I know what it's like to have mental problems because of influences in life, it is incredibly hard to get over things and now I don't really trust anyone from all the wrong that has happened before to me. Their is nothing more I want is to have faith in people by actually helping each other out and actually understand why they are that way.
@tennessee8210 you are exactly right. Empathy and selflessness. not selfishness will get us thru. u cant take money w u and u cant take love w u when u die, so y not spread it around. sometimes all it takes is a handshake and a smile to make someone's day that much better. and dont mistrust everyone, there are still some good ppl out there. i will be ur friend for sure! :) email me anytime u need to talk! there will be peace someday
i get critizized for my life. No one knows what its like to be 9 and have the first words your dad say to u in the morn be "Mom was in a car accident and its not looking good" know one knows what its like to be dumped over a txt by the one they loved. Does anyone know what its like?
@tharpoon Sad but true, the problem isn't those who know what it's like, it's the arrogance of those who don't. You know what the people who are well-to-do and decent, what their secret is? They started knowing what it's like.
Seriously this song's lyrics are the best and most meaningful compared to anything else out there. Today, songs like this don't get on the radio. Instead they have to be about drinking, partying, clubbing or sex. Meaningless garbage. This song has a storyline and took effort to write.
@lxsosna True, but it can make a comeback by people getting tired of that trend that you mentioned. Real music has taken a huge hit since '96 because of the act passed that allows people to buy a huge amount of media outlets i.e. time warner, viacom, etc. With such a small amount of people controlling media, they can influence the masses by keeping people ignorant with all of the songs about sex, drinking, etc. Education is the greatest defense but the U.S. education system is just so horrible.
@lxsosna ... but ... this song gets played on the radio all the time. and everything new everlast does gets played. not on pop stations, but on alternative stations. so ... your argument is invalid. :D
@IStoleAxelsBoxers shut up i'm about to be 19 and i agree with him today's music is nothing but SHIT it has NO MEANING were as this has MEANING...were as say linkin park (i like them) they sing about being something and depression were as this is song is from the SOUL.
@lxsosna Replying to myself hahaha. Anyway, I pity the generation of kids growing up in these times. The nineties were sick and no one can say otherwise. We had real music such as this, today kids only hear these God awful "songs" with generic bass beats, auto tuned vocals, and dubstep fart noises. Seriously, the amount of talent that "artists" such as LMFAO have is equivalent to a rock. I asked a kid if he ever saw the Lion King . He said no and I seriously wanted to smack him.
I Remember When me and my dad would ride through the town of Vidor,TX listning to this song. But that was before he went to prison. I miss and love you Dad. ://
@PS360DDW2009@Goochensteinburg1122 our rock station in Raleigh NC only censors out "shit" but they are known to play the whole song unedited overnight.
Like it. Though the way I look I don't get hit with that shit much. White angry contractor. Dirty and pissed, so I'm left alone, but not feared if I don't make a scene. Funny world we're in.
@Ibanez723 thats freagin retarded .. on the radio they can talk about sex sex sex and can say fuck as long as its not "sexual" .. but guns and drugs ?? lol politically correct, psh BS
@tracerab Shut up. I looked at your site. Quit your Nazi shit. The whole free world kicked your ass in the 40's, and we'll all do it again if we have to.
