In My Shoes
by Jennifer Katusha

Verse 1
One year ago you found me
Flat broke flat on my back
Liquor on my breath and heartbroken
People told ya good luck with that
But ya didn’t give up you said game on
And you stood right by my side
You said hang on tight my friend
This is gonna be a bumpy ride

Chorus
Thanks to you I’m a different man
Instead of run, you said I understand
When others gave up and looked away
You looked me in the eye and you stayed
If I start to slide backwards
You always have the exact words
Reminding me what I have to lose
‘Cause you’ve walked in my shoes


Verse 2
You’re the only one who doesn’t
Just tell me what I want to hear
You took me by the arm and made me
Take a good hard look in the mirror
And even though you push me
Far past all my limits
I can’t imagine this life
Without you in it

Chorus
Thanks to you I’m a different man
Instead of run you said I understand
When others gave up and looked away
You looked me in the eye - and you stayed
And if I start to slide backwards
You always have the exact words
Reminding me what I have to lose
‘Cause you’ve walked in my shoes


Chorus
Thanks to you I’m a different man
Instead of run you said I understand
When others gave up and looked away
You looked me in the eye and you stayed
And if I start to slide backwards
You always have the exact words
Reminding me what I have to lose
‘Cause you’ve walked in my shoes


You understand
Thanks brotherman
