[Chorus]
You ever felt any danger?
Have you ever fell from the stars?
Hit the ground and broke apart
Have you ever felt any anger?
Towards your heart
’Cause you’re still a child
And need a shoulder to lean on
[Verse 1]
Spoke with a homeless man while he was smoking something
Out of a Coca-Cola can
Sitting next to a plastic bag filled with milk and a loaf of bread
A couple candy bars and a bag of chips
I sat with him and I asked him this
“Brother, where you come from and how has your day been?”
He said it’s rough when it rains and his body is aching
And he’s scared because he’s old and these streets are dangerous
Ten years ago he got hooked on a medication from the hospital
And now can’t get off the stuff
Then he shared stories of his family from the south
And what our history is all about
Started breaking down Greek philosophy
European astronomy
Astonished from the look of him
I wouldn’t have thought he could hardly speak
Fascinating and amazing is an understatement
He felt the sincerity and he even thanked me
[Chorus]
You ever felt any danger?
(Raise it up one time for me)
Have you ever fell from the stars?
Hit the ground and broke apart
Have you ever felt any anger?
(Let it out, let it out, let it out, cause it's on your heart) x2
Towards your heart
’Cause you’re still a child
And need a shoulder to lean on
[Verse 2]
Spoke with a millionaire in his lair
The feng shui exemplified the pride of a big flair
Balcony with a view of the ocean and a personal chef
Separate room for his wife and his kid
So he can live how he wants to live
And on some level, not deal with them
Financial freedom with a massive ego
When he was sober, he was cock diesel and loud to people
But as the night went on, more glasses of Perignon
I noticed he started to sing on a different song
All emotional, talking of how alone he has got
Apparently, money doesn’t resolve Pandora’s box
Talks with a couple of his maids
And though they underpaid
They seem to have more peace in their hearts
There’s an American vision which has narrowed the wisdom
There’s always a positive and a minus in any system
[Chorus]
You ever felt any danger?
Have you ever fell from the stars?
Hit the ground and broke apart
Have you ever felt any anger?
Towards your heart
’Cause you’re still a child
And need a shoulder to lean on
