Without a Beggar's Oppinion

Without A Beggar's Oppinion

As a beggar there's so much I can see
For though I'm poor the streets belong to me
So trust me if I say the king is wrong
I'm not crazy I've watched him for so long

He proclaims "T" the most generous guy
The same man who spits when I say hi
Takes credit for being my hero
The truth; the world will never know

Chorus:
Why does it have to be this way?
Why do I never have a say
Even when it concerns my pay?
Oh why
Such a lie?
Oh why-y-y-y?

"T" is great; that's all they speak of him
'Cause, they say, he helps when hope is dim
I don't care if they reward him all their gold
They used my name; that's why I now uphold

Look they say this man is my savior
I can tell they don't know his behavior
Now the world claps blindly for this choice
I try to speak...they'll never hear my voice

Chorus:
Why does it have to be this way?
Why do I never have a say
Even when it concerns my pay?
Oh why-y?
The king can't see beyond the screens
Of what occurs behing the scenes
I see but have no means
to speak

Bridge:
You shouldn't say a man is generous without a beggar's oppinion.

You shouldn't give a man praises for something he did not do right
Some people only want to be seen in the light
For this they will step on those in the night
