Someone right now is leaving their apartment looking down at the street wondering where there car went

Someone in the car sitting at a signal in front of a restaraunt staring through the window at someone
right now with their finger in their teeth who could use a little floss

Right across the street theres somebody on the curb who really needs a jacket spent half the rent at a
bar getting plastered now hes gotta walk fourteen blocks to work at a shop where hes about to get fired.

Someone right now is looking pretty tired staring at a laptop trying to get inspired Somebody living
right across the street shes wrote the best things shes written all week but her best friends coughing up
blood in the sink cant even think what happened feeling so confused and he knows it looks bad but there
nothing he can do I wonder what its like to be right there in his shoes

But no im just taking it in out the window of a hotel bedroom again tommorrow ill be gone I dont know
when ill be back and this world everything can change just like that, that, just like that, just like that
that, just like that, just like that

Yo somebody right now is dropping his vote inside a box and trying not to get shot in his throat

For the act of freedom right now somebody is stuck in Iraq hoping that he gets shipped back breathing in
a war that hes not really sure of the reasons so we show our support when the press mislead them though we
more then remain proud and salute the troops get some I know you boys got some work to do

Meanwhile right now someones 25 to life and is stading on the corner with their thumb up hitchiking
stratching off a lotto ticket hoping for a real winner sneaking through the border just to work and to eat
a real dinner

Right now someone wishes they were you were not instead of second guessing freedom thoughts of quiet suicide

But right now im staring at the window at a frame with holes in his arm and holes in his jeans he pulled
out his siger and sparked the light and walked right around the corner just outta my sight

But yo im just taking it in from the second story hotel window again, the TV's on, and my bags are
packed, but in this world everything can change just like that, like that, like that, like that,

right now somebody coming out from the pocket trying to dump that rock they run around the block with at
the same time the cops is raising the block with aim to fill your legs and back with some hot shit

Right now somebody struggling to stop this man whos kick and punching and cussing at the doctors

Down the hall the child taking his first breath the doctors aint even passed him to the nurse yet yo I

to the question that we all seek can be found Depend on how free y'all think
