Lyrics for Song: Open Your Eyes 
Lyrics for Album: Break The Cycle [2001]
  
               
  1646>As I walk along these streets
  I see a man that walks alone
  Distant echo of people's feet
  He has no place to call his own
  A shot rings out from a roof overhead
  A crackhead asks for change nearby
  An old man lies in an alleyway dead
  A little girl lost just stands there and cries
 
 
  Chorus:
  What would you do (What would you do)
  if it was you (if it was you)
  Would you take everything
  For granted like you do
 
 
  A boy just 13 on the corner for sale
  Swallows his pride for another hit
  Overpopulation there's no room in jail
  And most of you don't give a shit
  That your daughters are porno stars
  And your sons sell death to kids
  So lost in your little worlds
  Your little worlds you'll never fix
 
 
  Chorus:
  What would you do (What would you do)
  if it was you (if it was you)
  Would you take everything
  For granted like you do
 
 
  You turn away (x4)
 
 
  As I walk along the streets
  Soaking up the acid rain
  Underneath the taxicabs
  I hear the streets cry out in vain
 
 
  Chorus:
  What would you do (What would you do)
  if it was you (if it was you)
  Would you take everything
  For granted like you do (x2)
