No Walls - K Rino

Imagining having no way to get warm when it’s cold

And when it’s hot, there’s no escape from heat when temperatures grow

Feeling hopeless and depressed is just a part of the deal

And you become dependent on strangers for water and meals

Every night you’re sleeping on streets that ain’t even safe

No bathrooms available, you can’t even bathe

So you struggle through the long day with low hygiene

On top of that you barely got clothes and those not clean

People walk and drive by you, displaying their blessings

And it’s rare when any of ‘em acknowledge your presence

They just keep going, showing no regard for the poor

You’ve been there so long, they don’t even notice no more

When I see ‘em on the city streets, what does it mean to me?

The image of people suffering is part of the scenery

Watching it up close is heartbreaking without a doubt

The part of society everybody forgot about ‘cause they got

No roof, no walls, no rooms, no halls

Hope you understanding the message I’m tryna show y’all, it’s

No roof, no walls, no rooms, no halls

Hope you understanding the message I’m tryna show y’all

Tell me why

People always pass me by (every single day, every single night)

'til we die

They see us and they still deny (C'mon, yeah)

Everyday morale decreases the deeper they drown

You look down on ‘em and not because they sleep on the ground

How can you think you better than the homeless women or men, when you’re a lost

job away from the condition they’re in?

So in your mind, you put ‘em all in the same category

You think they’re all bums and dopeheads, you don’t know their story

Your picture is just a small part, believe it’s bigger

Some lived in big homes with families and made six figures

Served in the armed forces, got college degrees

Others with more knowledge than most people you’ll probably see

But when you look at ‘em, you see people who have no value

Not thinking that one day, the same fate might grab you

The level of misfortune, do you know the extent?

You ever seen three people living in one tent?

The smell of urine in the wind, it’s a sad display

And people laying there everyday wasting away ‘cause they got

No roof, no walls, no rooms, no halls

Hope you understanding the message I’m tryna show y’all, it’s

No roof, no walls, no rooms, no halls

Hope you understanding the message I’m tryna show y’all

Tell me why

People always pass me by (every single day, every single night)

'til we die

They see us and they still deny (C'mon, yeah)

The city ain’t doin' nothin', they won’t take onus

Money used for everything except helping the homeless

New stadiums, buildings, it’s road construction

But the number living outside there’s no reduction

Some of ‘em have mental sicknesses and health conditions

City officials be trippin', they won’t help, but listen

Hard to be self-sufficient and get on track

When you lose your way and nobody will help you get back

God bless you if you walkin' down that long street

I salute the ones who been there and got back on feet

It’s kinda crazy when I see ‘em in a group or alone

Some of ‘em be in better spirits than people with homes

If you never saw it as humbling you gotta believe me

People with real struggles make you see your problems are easy

Next time you see ‘em, look at ‘em and feel their pain

And you should be ashamed if after that you still complain ‘cause they got

No roof, no walls, no rooms, no halls

Hope you understanding the message I’m tryna show y’all, it’s

No roof, no walls, no rooms, no halls

Hope you understanding the message I’m tryna show y’all

Tell me why

People always pass me by (every single day, every single night)

'til we die

They see us and they still deny (C'mon, yeah)
