Well these bricks feel like gold beneath my feet
And the shoes that I've been given, they carry me
Though the miles I walked have made me weak
I've had farewells from cities as I leave
And I've gone without a word from the best of these
And I'm a man but I'm polite so put that knife away please
I've been blessed with empty days under empty skies
And I've been blessed with kindness on these desperate eyes
And I've been beaten up so many times
Well you've been given eyes it's your fault you can hardly see
I've been given a voice that's all the permission I need to speak
And if you want to chop my head off I'll pull the ground up to my knees
