I sit here watching the world go by
Trying to figure out how and why
Grown man crying like a child
Without a clue and a dollar
Stole food to feed my daughter
I'm fighting hard not to pull the trigger
A worthless man with a loving soul
But his actions causes others to be blind
He ain't asking for much
But he been asking for so long
They don't even bother to answer
as they stroll on
***** with a smell
No chance of anybody inviting him in
Last nights temperature was forty two
Used his cardboard sigh to start a fire
Little girl needed heat
Then he rocked little girl to sleep
Fresh new day
Fresh new start
Fresh new outfit and shoes for the kids headed back to school
Then theirs her
Asking why as smoke from smoldering ashes fill the sky
He's left completely hating life
Feeling like **** he can't provide
Mad at his wife for dying to soon
Cussing his ex boss for laying him off
Worked twenty one years and never knew
How close he was from living in the streets
Reality hits hard
Wraps his arm her as he kisses her forehead
Whispers baby it will get better
I promise you
With a smile she answers
I know daddy
Because your superman
How great it would be for the ending to be happy
But in this case it ain't happening
Out one morning begging for food, work or something to help them by
When an argument with a ******* woman, who was tired of seeing these bums around, went bad fast
She called the cops
Screaming she's been attacked
No marks, no blood, no witnesses
Yet he sits at 33rd street
Time ticking by and it's turning dark
With no options he let's them know
DCF picked her up
State handed him another case
Judge ordered eight years as he slammed that hammer
Stood silent in tears seeing her image clear
I love you and please forgive me he says
Before making it four steps from where that judge sat
Thirty seconds and four bullets later his life ended
Three beeps as regular programming was interrupted
Everybody stops to hear
A Homeless man who forced his daughter to sleep in the woods and brutally attacked a woman was shot and killed in a courtroom today
Everybody but that ten year girl
All she heard was
Your dad is dead
