I saw him standing there
So dirty and disheveled
When I said, "Hi,"
His eyes grew wide
Like he’d see the devil
He said, "Oh, pardon me my friend
Most tend to pass me by
They’d rather wish I didn’t exist
Than ever try and wonder why
I stand here on this corner
Just tryin’ to survive
While they avoid my glances
Life don’t favor second chances."
I asked to buy him a drink
He said, "Thanks, I think I’ll pass
But keep me in your thoughts
And promise me you’ll raise a glass
For all the onеs forgotten
For all the ones ignorеd
‘Cause in the end we’re all human
And virtue is its own reward."
