I would tell you all the things that they put me through

the pain I've been subjected to

but the lord would suffer and blush

The kindles fleas laid at me feet

forbidden fruits for me to eat

but I think you pulse would start to rush

now I'm not looking for the absolution

or forgiveness for the things I did

but before you come to any conclusions

Try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes

You stumble in my footsteps

keep the same appointments I've kept

If you start walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes

Wherever you would find the part

indecency looked down upon

the scapegoat fates made of me

but I tell you now my judges juror

intentions couldn't have but pure

my case is easy to see

I'm not looking for a clearer conscience

piece of pie after what I've been through

and before we talk of any repentance

Try walking in my shoes

and try walking in my shoes

You stumble in my footsteps

keep the same appointments I've kept

If you try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my

now I'm not looking for the absolution

or forgiveness for the things I did

but before you come to any conclusions

Try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes

You stumble in my footsteps

keep the same appointments I've kept

If you try walking in my shoes

You stumble in my footsteps

keep the same appointments I've kept

If you try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes
