What do you do? (poem)
What do you do when you have a friend,
their problems are showing but they keep them within
You see that they're suffering and you want it to end
but you don't know what to do or where to begin?
Tell me what do you do?
What do you do when there's pain in your life,
you try everything to make it seem right
you look but it doesnt appear to be in sight
and you know it's day but there still is no light?
Tell me what do you do?
What do you do when you need some help,
you can't afford to live or even feed yourself
you say "change will come" but you don't believe yourself
You cant depend on anyone and don't feel you need yourself
Tell me what do you do?
What do you do when you lost someone you care for dearly?
You think of them everyday and pray that "they can just hear me"
That one inspiration who understood you clearly
and you realize that they'll never again be near me.
Tell me what do you do?
What do you do when you cant stand up?
You swallow your pride and man up.
Go to the lord with your hands up
and ask him what he demands of us
That's what you do!
their problems are showing but they keep them within
You see that they're suffering and you want it to end
but you don't know what to do or where to begin?
Tell me what do you do?
What do you do when there's pain in your life,
you try everything to make it seem right
you look but it doesnt appear to be in sight
and you know it's day but there still is no light?
Tell me what do you do?
What do you do when you need some help,
you can't afford to live or even feed yourself
you say "change will come" but you don't believe yourself
You cant depend on anyone and don't feel you need yourself
Tell me what do you do?
What do you do when you lost someone you care for dearly?
You think of them everyday and pray that "they can just hear me"
That one inspiration who understood you clearly
and you realize that they'll never again be near me.
Tell me what do you do?
What do you do when you cant stand up?
You swallow your pride and man up.
Go to the lord with your hands up
and ask him what he demands of us
That's what you do!
