They don't want your advice
your pity
or your shame
just want
to live their life
and let you do the same
Don't want your
thoughts and prayers
your patronising words
They know what life's
suppose to be
Or so they've heard
A job
A home
Some food
Little bit of money in the bank
a family
good health
good friends
Is definitely where it's at
So why do so many
In the mass of humanity
not have these
and others
Snare and judge them
for the crime
Of poverty
They don't want your charity
your benevolence
or your wealth
They just want to
earn enough to live
like everybody else
Don't want to take
from you
they don't want
to have more
they just want a way
to try to
even up the score
