[Chorus]

Clean sheets

You're lucky if you got 'em, oh I swear you are

But you don't know that, do you?

You're too busy

Stressing and worrying about what you don't got

But you don't know that, do you?


[Verse 1]

In the streets, walking right past me, I’m like a ghost that you can barely see

And if I catch your eye, you’re passing by and looking down me

Feel a little scared of me, don’t think I don’t notice

How your face switches up, it’s not my fault that I am homeless

I’ll be here tonight, maybe for another week

It’s been a year without a roof, celebrating my anniversary

You only see the worst in me, I’m human you’ve forgotten

If you ever catch me asking you for help

It's only cause I'm running out of options

I ain't stopping, I ain't dropping, write my life out

I've been plotting, taking stock and making options

Counting every penny

Cause it wasn't always like this

I was living pretty good and now I'm thinking why this

Is happening to me, looking back to when I had it all

Bed, lights, and clean sheets, walls I had four

Hoping for more, then life came knocking at my door, said

“Hey, hello, get out — I have a different plan in store for you"


[Chorus]

Clean sheets

You're lucky if you got 'em, oh I swear you are

But you don't know that, do you?

You're too busy (too busy)

Stressing and worrying about what you don't got

But you don't know that, do you?


[Verse 2]

Out here in August in the summer sweating like an open faucet, exhausted

No wallet, nothing in my pocket, only losses no message no profit

Come January, and the cold is crazy, I cannot explain it

Feeling shaky, I'm achy, it's rainy, hey lady

With the umbrella, you're going inside

Won't you help a fella out here, don't leave me behind

Give me a sign God, throw me a line, I'm about resign

From this life I'm in, it's been in constant decline

Don't know where my next meal is coming from

Strangers that decided to be nice today left me some leftovers

Then a dog stepped over it

I’m, upset over it

Fought, and stressed over it

I'm over it, anyways

Thank you to the strangers that are taking the time

To help a young lost soul carry on and survive

All I need is clean sheets at the end of the night

And you can sleep better knowing that I'm sleeping on mine


[Bridge]

Do you know what it feels like

To be unseen

To be unheard

You'll never know what it feels like

To have nothing at all (to have nothing at all)

Nothing at all

But you’re lucky cause you got some


[Chorus]

Clean sheets

You're lucky if you got 'em, oh I swear you are (yeah you’re lucky if you got ‘em)

But you don't know that, do you? (oh I swear you are)

You're too busy

Stressing and worrying about what you don't got (yeah you’re lucky if you got ‘em)

But you don't know that, do you?


[Outro]

Clean sheets (clean sheets)

You're lucky if you got 'em, oh I swear you are

But you don't know that, do you?
