VERSE 1 
When I look around
Can’t believe what I’m seeing
People throwing down
Like they got no feelings
Talkin’ trash – Spreading lies
Gossip, rumors and despise
Is this how we want to live?
What happened to the love and
The way we give?
PRE-CHORUS
Tell me – is it really okay, mm
To look the other way, sayin’
“Haters gonna hate – so there’s no escape
Just live your life afraid…”
How can we look away
Lettin’ it go on each and every day
We need to stand up
Put your hands up if you’re with me say
CHORUS
Come & walk a mile in these shoes
Before you criticize – realize if you
Come & walk a mile in these shoes
You won’t hesitate to stop the hate
Come & walk a mile in these shoes
Together we can make it better
Come & walk a mile in these shoes
“Come & Walk a Mile”
VERSE 2
Why – we hurt on each other
Where is – our respect for one another?
Why do we stand by and watch each other bleed?
If we gonna make this change
We need to heal this pain
Be bold enough to make others see
Through the invisibility
PRE-CHORUS
Tell me – is it really okay, mm
To look the other way, sayin’
“Haters gonna hate – so there’s no escape
Just live your life afraid…”
How can we look away
Lettin’ it go on each and every day
We need to stand up
Put your hands up if you’re with me say
CHORUS
Come & walk a mile in these shoes
Before you criticize – realize if you
Come & walk a mile in these shoes
You won’t hesitate to stop the hate
Come & walk a mile in these shoes
Together we can make it better
Come & walk a mile in these shoes
BRIDGE
Why do we choose to believe
That there’s a difference between you and me?
Playing on insecurities
Instead of praying for our humanity
I just know if we reach out – speak out
And choose to hold these truths
We can carry on – and live strong
