Thrown out in the cold
No money left to pay the bills
Hunger in the stomachs
Tears in my eyes

Who will I ran to?
Who will help me?
Oh, so many problems in the world
Everyone facing his or her own challenges
So, I have to face this mess
Face it on my own

If you have roofs over your head, then you are the lucky one
'Cos some of us are thrown out in the cold with no place to run to and no one to turn to
If you can pay your rent bills, you are the lucky one
'Cos some of us are unable to pay bills hence the shame and pain of being ejected from the house.
Landlady with padlock and her boys throwing out things
With pleas and tears deaf to her ears

It's a phase, it will be pass
To you, who gave me shelter, thank you
And you, who gave me food, am grateful
In times like this, you understand the essence of people
To the beautiful people who have been there in times past and even now. I'm grateful.
