If he seems cold and bitter I beg of you
Just stop and consider all that he's gone through

Don't be quick to condemn him for things he might say
Just remember life turned him that way
He's been stepped on and walked on so many times
And I hate to admit it but that last footprint's mine
He was crying when I met him he cries harder today
So don't blame him life turned him that way
[ steel ]
He's been stepped on...
No don't blame him life turned him that way
