Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
You can never know what
I've been through
until you're standing in my place
My place
I don't advertise all my troubles
and I don't put it on my
You can never see what I see
Unless you're looking through my view,
my view
And if you think my life is easy
Walk a mile in my shoe, my shoe
They see me jiving,
they think it is sweet
But I'm a -working hard
to make ends meet
So everyday I got to hit those streets
Make sure my family got some food to eat
I got my dignity, I got my pride
And my emotions I'm deep inside
And even though I'm
swimming against the tide
I take it in my stride
You can never know what
I've been through
Until you're standing in my place,
my place
I don't advertise my problems
And I don't put it on my space,
my space
You can never see what I see
Unless you're looking through my view,
my view
And if you think my life is easy
Walk a mile in my shoes, yeah
Every man see his burden is heavy
But Mali don't tell we are ready
I will have vibes and I go
and will have many
Cause I got to be strong
So many people are depending on
I got the idols and the little
one I say they look to me
So I got to be all the best I can be
But you can never know
what I've been through
Until you're standing in my place,
my place
I don't advertise my problems
And I don't put it on my space,
my space
You can never see what I see
Unless you're looking through my view,
my view
And if you think my life is easy
Walk a mile in my shoes, yeah, yeah
