Knowing

rod

 If i was a bird that could not fly

would you put me out of my nest

 would you walk by and turn your head

 cause im different than the rest

 no fingers in my gloves

to you may seem strange

sitting in different spots

looking for food and change  

everyone has a talent

and i have no doubt that you do

 but its in a lot of are heads

that were much better than you 

why is this the case

cause we have a front door

 is it because we get what we want

 and still we ask for more

why are we so superior

why do we look down are nose,

cause we have a wardrobe full of shit

and you have one pair of clothes  

truth is a lot of us judge you

 we don't no why your there

 we will cross the road to avoid you

point out are cars and stare  

 none of us want your life

 but as people were no better than you

 we cry smile and laugh

all the things you do  

 really were not that different 

 both try to make it through the day

 both have different problems

just in different ways  

but you have something that we don't have

and something we could all do with

KNOWING WHAT ITS LIKE TO HAVE NOTHING

KNOWING HOW HARD ITS TO LIVE

    I like your use of end-rhyming...it is very nice.
