Story Behind The Song

This song is about self reflection, about how I can wander off, and not pay attention to what's really important. People that are hurting is what is really important in this life, and many times we get successful in whatever we are doing, and we forget about the hurting people, (The ones that never get to handshake because they're always looking down). I feel in my heart that I am one of the biggest offenders in this area, that is why I wrote this song.

Lyrics

Verse:
When you wake up in the morning, do you hear them sing?
When you go out to make the world a better place, what will you bring?
Chorus:
Will you feel their pain?
Will you walk alongside of someone, who never gets the handshake, cause they're always looking down, cause that's the place you look when you're listening for the sound of someone, when you're listening for the sound of someone, who cares about you. Who cares about you.
Verse:
When you're making up your stories, are you the star?
Was there ever any doubt in your mind, you're gonna go far?
Chorus:
Will you feel the pain?
Will you walk alongside of someone, who never gets the handshake, cause they're always looking down, cause that's the place you look when you're listening for the sound of someone, when you're listening for the sound of someone, who cares about you. Who cares about you.
Bridge:
Long ago, you had a feeling, you sang a song. Long ago, you made a difference, what went wrong? What went wrong?
Verse:
When you wake up in the morning, do you still hear the angels sing? And when you go out to make the world a better place, what spirit you gonna bring?
Chorus:
Will you feel the pain? Will you walk alongside of someone, who never gets the handshake, cause they're always looking down, cause that's the place you look, when you're listening for the sound of someone. When you're listening for the sound of someone. When you're listening for the sound of someone. Who cares about you. Who cares about you. Who cares about you.
