battz (tn) - spare a dollar lyrics
[intro]
what would be jesus?
take me by the hand
ooh+ooh
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
ayy, look
[verse 1]
young man, can you spare a dollar?
i’ve been lookin’ for some change, man, i’m kinda lonely
sittin’ by my lonely, they laugh at us because we stinkin’, don’t know me
my son, my daughter, my wife, they left me, my one and only’s dead
man, i hate these hunger pains, hate these hunger pains
on my shirt, you see the stains, say you see the stains
this ain’t no actin’, tryna get some quick bucks
i’ve been fightin’ white men my wholе life and i ain’t give up
i’m a vetеran, i fought for this country, i fought for this land
i put my pride to the side and treated less as a man
been in and out of the jails, in and out of the cans
and i lost all my foundation, i don’t know where to stand
brodie, can i get a dollar? brodie, can i get a quarter?
i ain’t really tryna hide it, tryna get my life in order
i was robbed for my disorder, man, this covid made it worse
i’ve been laying dead up on this concrete, man, it really hurts
i’ve been tryna find some work, but man, it’s hard, homie, it’s hard
i be rappin’ on the side, one day i’ma be a star, dawg
no, you ain’t hearin’ what i’m sayin’, but i’m prayin’
homie, man, i’m prayin’
[chorus 1]
can you spare a dollar for me?
can you spare a dollar for me? ayy
can you spare a dollar for me? ayy
can you spare a dollar for me? (nah)
[verse 2]
bro, i get you need some help, i need some help too
but i didn’t ask for a hand, or else i ain’t got n0body to step to
i gotta pick my daughter up, so i’ma need some gas
only ten dollars to my name and every one of them gon’ last
you askin’ for some handouts, boy? then get up off yo’ +++
man, i’m tired of these bums
i’ma [?] out the gun+ “blaow, blaow!”— now you done
y’all the scum of the earth, y’all not knowin’ y’all worth
sittin’ outside [of/the] stores and y’all be leavin’ y’all dirt
that’s sad, my baby mama really trippin’
scr+pin’ up this change, tryna get a new prescription
ain’t got no direction and i’m thinkin’ ’bout enlistin’
now i think about it, this is how you got to your position
i’m sorry, i can be harsh sometimes
i want y’all to get what y’all wants and stop askin’ for mines
is that okay, dawg? and i was hearin’ what you sayin’
and i’m prayin’ for your situation
[chorus 2]
homie, i can really spare a dollar for you
i can spare a dollar for you, ayy
i can spare a dollar for you, ayy
i can spare a dollar for you, yeah
can you spare a dollar for me?
i can spare a dollar for you
[outro]
what would be jesus?
take me by the hand
ooh+ooh
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
