Take The Time Out |
Lying out on the street, there’s a man |
That needs somewhere to sleep |
And a bag-lady digs, through the trash |
Hoping to find some food to eat |
In the cold winter’s snow, walks a boy |
That needs shoes for his feet |
In an old run-down house, there’s a child |
In a crib that needs some heat |
In the dark of the night, a young man |
Searches for a guiding light |
And a young woman cries in despair |
Because she feels alone in life |
You might ask yourself what in the hell |
Does that have to do with me |
Well, here is your wake up call |
Everything! |
Because we all play a part in each other’s existence |
Take the time out to love someone |
Reach your arms out and hug someone |
Be it king or some homeless one |
We are all one underneath the sun |
Take the time out to be right there |
Take the time out to show you care |
You’ll be so glad when the day is done |
You took the time out to love someone |
There’s a man in a house where they’re selling crack |
Yet he’s trying to be strong |
But when lost in the sea, of no hope |
He must be saved from wrong |
Don’t say what you won’t do, if for days |
You had no food to eat |
Nor extremes you won’t go, for a bed, shoes |
Or if your baby needed heat |
You do not have the right to pre-judge |
If you don’t share your strength |
And you can’t say you’re down for the fight |
If you won’t go the length |
Now I don’t really care what you feel |
If you don’t feel for life |
And don’t care what you think if your words |
Don’t have ways and actions that perpetuate life |
Take the time out to love someone |
Reach your arms out and hug someone |
Be it king or some homeless one |
We are all one underneath the sun |
Take the time out to be right there |
Take the time out to show you care |
You’ll be so glad when the day is done |
You took the time out to love someone |
I think it’s time to |
Take the time out to love someone |
Reach your arms out and hug someone |
Be it king or some homeless one |
We are all one underneath the sun |
Take the time out to be right there |
Take the time out to show you care |
You’ll be so glad when the day is done |
You took the time out to love someone |
