Off the Streets

I got off the streets tonight
Every day is pure hardship
Sucked into a material world
Expression of being an individual
Don’t crimp my style
Or take over my life
Something you treasure
As much as my time
Away from my work
Coexist in good measure
Investing in me
A good house
A strong foundation
Discovering desire
A loving family
Means everything to me
I want to say more
A message of hope
And understanding
So what's your story?
