Beg to Differ
Beg to Differ: Unveiling Life's Unseen Struggles
Lyrics
The people change re-arrange but it stays the same
The world undergoes changes and rearrangements, yet certain aspects remain constant.
And one by one all said and done all been and gone
Individually, everyone has had their turn, and collectively, everything has happened and passed.
And those who should no never would never could
Those who should do the right thing may never do so.
Iv'e seen the picture I beg to differ one more time one more time
The speaker has a different perspective than what is commonly believed, expressing a dissenting view.
And If right is right like for like maybe you 'ill get yours like I got mine
If fairness is reciprocal, the speaker suggests that everyone will receive their just deserts.
Sally army can play forever a day but it don't go away
The Salvation Army's efforts may persist, but the underlying issue remains unresolved.
On the frozen streets the homeless sleep and angels weep
In the harsh conditions of the streets, the homeless suffer, and the speaker notes the sorrow of angels.
Church lights are off the doors are locked like Gods forgot
Religious institutions seem neglected or abandoned, as if divine attention has waned.

And If right is right then like for like maybe you 'ill get yours like I got mine

Sometimes we all need a little help
Acknowledging that everyone occasionally requires assistance.
Just a little so we can help ourselves
A modest plea for a small amount of assistance so that self-help becomes possible.
Some get lost with no way out
Some individuals find themselves lost without a clear path to escape.
Now God help those who can't help themselves selves selves
Expressing concern for those unable to help themselves, invoking a call for divine intervention.
Searching high and low everywhere you go the answers no
Regardless of one's efforts, finding answers may prove elusive and unattainable.
No charity no dignity no mercy
A depiction of a harsh reality: lack of charity, dignity, and mercy.
In the promised land on shifting sands stood cap in hand
Even in a promised land, circumstances can be unstable, leaving one in a vulnerable position.
Iv'e seen the picture I beg to differ one more time one more time
Reaffirmation of the speaker's dissenting perspective, urging a reconsideration of prevailing beliefs.
And if right is right like for like maybe you 'ill get yours like I got mine

Maybe you 'ill get yours like I got mine
