Breadline
by Mark Mathis

Album: Public Radio

you gotta walk that breadline
you gotta hold out your hand
you gotta make them believe you
they want to see you beg

She's gotta walk that red line
they want to see her legs
she's gotta give them all of her
and it hurts so bad

but He is not like that
lover of the broken
a compassionate man
you find Him in the wind
throw your head back and breathe deep of Him

she's gotta spend her childhood
making steel-toed shoes
when there's nothing to look forward to
you got nothing to lose

but He is not like that
lover of the broken
a compassionate man
redemption in His veins
enough to bring hope back to this nightmare

you can be righteouss
you can be holy
