Consider Yourself

Consider yourself one of the lucky you have never had for to sleep rough
You do not know how it feels like to feel hungry so many who are doing it tough
You and i have no need to complain though we are not of the privileged few
To live for years hungry and homeless is something of we never knew
Yes we are far luckier than most are we have never been hungry for a day
Not everyone can say the same thing so many live in the hard way
The children of abusive parents homeless and as young teenagers street wise
So few of them live to grow old above poverty they cannot rise
Success to them is survival they only live from day to day
Many of them deceased in their twenties in forgotten paupers graves lay
You and i should not be complaining of the hardships in life we endure
There are so many worse off than we are compared to them we are financially secure
So many people in disused old factories are sleeping cold and hungry tonight
Survival to them it is success life for them is an uphill fight.
