As the world turns we continue to change
A bum on the street looking for spare change
To bystanders and civilians he may appear strange
But he?s only trying to make a change
As he is judged for crazy and deranged
Then one night he becomes a star
Then the same population that left his esteem scarred
Come running up, because money will make you act bizarre
Now notice the transformation
In that judging nation
Made a man feel like God?s worst creation
Now they?re having a celebration
Treating him like a brother
From another mother
Rejoicing with him, or is it with him?
Maybe it?s because of his riches that the sadness is now dim
But is it really gone?
Describing a change on the outside, but deep inside the agony is still drawn
Ten years down the road
The money is gone once again, and the ?once bum? switched to loner mode
The parties have disappeared
And what that bum once feared
Is back, and now is it that he truly understands why his ?companions? would act weird
Why they would only come around when there was a festivity
When there was women and sex activity
And were there wasn?t, his world would stand still
Continuously he would end up with the bill
Change was wrapped all around this man
Playing with his mind sense the day his life began
He was alone in the beginning, now he?s by himself again
But like I said before, deep inside everything stayed the same
Now you tell me, was there really ever a change?
