A song about poverty and faith.
String
I stare down at the street
There’s this piece of string
It’s tied around his shoes, yeah, at least he’s got his shoes
Some times that seems like, it’s more than enough
At least he’s walking—at least he’s talking
Yeah, it seems, that he’s got something to hold on to
Something tied around his waist
May be the only thing holding him together
Maybe the only thing
And he said, “At least I’ve got something to hold on to
Yeah, it’s just a piece of string
But it can wrap around my heart
Keep it from falling apart”
And he said, “Hey listen and look, where you are
You can’t help but step lightly
Do you need something to wrap around your faith?”
I need something to hold on to
I need to hold on to you…
