Different Shoes Songtext
von LSP

Cheers ABK

This is for the kid lost with nowhere to go
The kid that knows that there′s hope when there's no
Understand staring at the smoke dreaming big
Or the kid tryna make it out from where he lives
The kid that hits the books and studies for his A+
The kid living like a crook that only takes drugs
To escape cause he′s lost and never found trust
Or the kid working hard from the ground up

Or the girl waking up to face the world alone
Or the single mum tryna build a happy home
Or no man tryna feed the kids on the dole
Or the girl that needs a hit dancing on the pole
Or the man who breaks a sweat but he stays in debt
Alcoholic at the pub, always placing bets
The man facing stress going through a break up
Wants to give up but he can't gotta make bucks


Different shoes but we headed to the same place
This life we in, contradiction to the human race
Different places, different faces but the same themes
The highs and lows, gonna face the things alone we be
Different people, different faces all across the globe
Ain't all about the dough it′s bout what you know
Different shoes but we headed to the same place
This life we in, contradiction to the human race

The lost soul out of clutch in the mental home
The inmate who doesn′t know when he's coming home
The kid punching cones thinking bout the shit at school
And not knowing what he′s missing when he's skipping school
Or the kid just born knowing what′s ahead

In his life while another person faces death
One's both, for the other it′s his worst day
Or the guy working 9-5 to earn pay
This is life, same day different time frame

Pray or write, win or lose this is life's game
That's the way it is, you must adapt to the stress and strain
Never give in to it all when it tests your brain
We all the same, different shoes on the same track
This life, path of life, no one can change that
Make the most of what you got, see you can hit the high
Or you can hit the low it′s up to you how you live it


Different shoes but we headed to the same place
This life we in, contradiction to the human race
Different places, different faces but the same themes
The highs and lows, gonna face the things alone we be
Different people, different faces all across the globe
Ain′t all about the dough it's bout what you know
Different shoes but we headed to the same place
This life we in, contradiction to the human race

I give advice at times I need to do it
Start another habit when I need to quit
Seen some lows, seen some highs, what be coming next
Ain′t no living in the life apart what's ahead

Back in the day, nightmares
And you′ll fall if you think that life fair
Back in the day scraping for a stick to get a hit
Now we making hits, call the kids scraping for a stick
Now we on the stage doing music that we made for you

Seen all stages in our life that we made it through
Never give up no matter how hard the circumstance
First must be common sense but no matter the odds
Against my common sense look at me
Started as kids from Hulwick House and Brooklyn Hill, good glee
Most of what we got, you gotta do something to
Stay true and everyday we ain't always in the same shoes

Different shoes but we headed to the same place
This life we in, contradiction to the human race
Different places, different faces but the same themes
The highs and lows, gonna face the things alone we be
Different people, different faces all across the globe
Ain′t all about the dough it's bout what you know
Different shoes but we headed to the same place
This life we in, contradiction to the human race
