" walk a mile in my shoes"

-Elvis Preesly

if i could be you, if you could be me 

for just one hour, if we could find a way 

to get inside each other's mind 

if you could see you through my eyes 

instead your own ego

i believe you'd be 

i believe you'd be surprised to see

that you've been blind 

walk a mile in my shoes 

just walk a mile in my shoes 

before you abuse,criticize, and accuse 

then walk a mile in my shoes

now if we spend the day 

throwing' stones at one another 

' cause i will think,'cause i will think to wear my hat the same way you do 

well, i may be common people 

but i'm your brother

and when you strike out

you're tryin' to hurt me 

it's hurtin' you, lord how mercy 

now there are people on reservations

and out in the ghetto

and whether they're for the Grace of God

or you and i,

if i only had wings of a little angel 

dont you know,i'd fly 

to the top of a mountain 

and then i'd cry, cry, cry 

reflection: i think it means that first you need to get to know the person before you criticize them or never judge anyone.
