Walk a Mile in my shoes

If I could be you, if you could be me
For just one hour, if we could find a way
To get inside each others mind
If you could see you through my eyes
Instead your own ego I believe youd be
I believe youd be surprised to see
That youve been blind

Walk a mile in my shoes
Just walk a mile in my shoes
Before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Then walk a mile in my shoes

Now if we spend the day
Throwin stones at one another
cause I dont think, cause I dont think
Or wear my hair the same way you do
Well, I may be common people
But Im your brother
And when you strike out
Youre tryin to hurt me
Its hurtin you, lord how mercy

Now there are people on reservations
And out in the ghetto
And brother there, but, for the grace of god
Go you and i,
If I only had wings of a little angel
Dont you know, Id fly
To the top of a mountain
And then Id cry, cry, cry

Don't have expectations?

Fact is in life we all at some point develop expectations. You pull up to red traffic lights and you expect them to change to green, you get into a lift and you expect it will take you to another floor. You flick a light switch and expect the room to be filled with light, you turn on the tap and believe you will see water flow.

The unfortunate thing is, that in all those cases above sometimes those things don't happen.

They happen for a reason.......cause and effect.....
