a pair of shoes
I got a pair of shoes to fit you,
though they're possibly not your size,
but before you get your pen out,
to cross the t's, and dot the i's,
would'nt you like to hear the truth, and not the lies.
To put my feet in your shoes,
would certainly be a squeeze,
and to walk any lenth of distance
bring me to my knees,
so why then sit in judgement,
and never hear my plea's.
I got a pair of comfy shoe's,
though there possibly not your style,
lets see if there as comfortable,
after you've done a mile,
or would you change your opinion,
and lose that cheesey smile.
i got a pair of slip on's,
though the colour wont suit you,
the heels are all worn,
from the things that i've been through,
and my step is not as certain,
as the future i'm heading to.
some of my steps were easy,
some of my steps were long,
some were filled with pain,
and sometimes brisk, and strong,
but have you ever walked in judgement,
and not known that you were wrong.
some people watch and whisper
others heckle all the day,
i would'nt want to walk in their shoe's
what do they know anyway.
