Songtext
There's a
Homeless man on the subway begging for change
You might look at him and think he were strange
You might look at him and think he deranged
All because he dirty, dreadlocked and mange, but
He say he want to sing you a tune, so you
Look at him like you think he a goon, so you
Look at him like you think he a loon, but
You might even start to think of him soon, because
Sing for the moment
Yeah, you owning it
Take it away if you want to face the day and then say
Sing for the moment
Yeah, you owning it
Take it away if you want to face the day and then say
Do do do do you
Do do, do what you got to do to stay true
Do do do do you
Do do, do what you got to do to stay true
There's a
Single mother singing to her kids on a train
You might look at her and think she were plain
You might look at her
And think she chained down to a note she can't sustain, but
She never had ambition
Because she never had a single person to listen, so you can
Stop the friction
Fact is
You don't even know what you missing, she
Sing for the moment
Little mama you owning it
Take it away if you want to face the day and then say
Sing for the moment
Little mama you owning it
Take it away if you want to face the day and then say
Do do do do you
Do do, do what you got to do to stay true
Do do do do you
Do do, do what you got to do to stay true
Do do do do you
Do do, do what you got to do to stay true
Do do do do you
Do do, do what you got to do to stay true
