Long time ago,
I watched a man,
Lose everything that he had,
Though it was sad,
I only laughed,
When I saw he had nothing left,
Kicked out of house,
Not paying rent,
Turn of events,
I watched him smile,
Cause there's little things in life that matter,
You don't need money to feel better,
It's family and friends who come through in the end,
To have your back no matter the weather,
So the story goes,
Of the man who was damned,
Only time will show,
What's left for him,
Standing in front of a mirror,
To find peace from within,
I was there to see the fright in his eyes,
Saw the light in the dark and the dark in the light,
Ever wonder why I was there by his side,
I'm the man in the mirror, looking in my own eyes,
I'm the man who was damned,
The same damn man that laughed when he lost,
Everything that he had,
My life crumbled down and I smiled as I watched,
Cause there's little things in life that matter,
You don't need money to feel better,
It's family and friends who come through in the end,
To have your back no matter the weather,
