Keep Believing

My heart screamed out as I looked for comfort
As I stretched myself thin with no pillow's or cover's
Looking for shelter under tree's in a shallow disbelief
That my life has come this far, and now there is nothing for me to eat

Troubled by my sadness I looked for other mean's
I drowned myself in alcohol until I found myself asleep
To then wake up to a reality that I wish wasn't so
I struggled up to my feet for there was nowhere I could go

My clothes were ragged, and my shoe's had holes, but
these feeling's I held onto kept me moving, and lightened this heavy soul
Teeth weren't white, and a shower wasn't a close friend of mine
Though you may walk by I hold a smile with which you will never outshine

So even though I am without a home my pride moves me forward
Where I am heading isn't hard at all, because with two leg's I keep on walking
Taking one step at a time even if I have to restart is nothing but an adventure
The only certainty I have in life is that giving a pure smile will always make you feel better
