culture power45 - pennies in the pocket lyrics

culture power45 ft. thaione davis – “pennies in the pocket”
[emcee(s): thaione davis]
[producer(s): thaione davis]

[verse 1: thaione davis]
see, i was raised where your particular
shade is irrelevant. south side resident
guilty without no evidence, the numbers of policy
and poverty is kind of like a mockery ‘cause everything
ain’t adding up properly. the tables never
was balanced ‘cause, every day, the same challenge. better
sharpen your talons when you’re out there in the field, trying to
scavenge for the cabbage. it could happen any second, it gets
savage. life in the savanna under blue light
cameras is astonishing. a couple projects
love for demolishing. just take a ride and feel
the shift in economics. black dollars don’t promise to get
spent on no black products. we basically
could save ourself, but we was never educated on wealth
take, for example, how a touchup from the barbershop
could circulate around the block and put a little paper in a
community garden plot. self-governance
the finance infinite. everybody pitches in
everybody benefits. it’s simple sh-t
encouraging a stimulus. if we ain’t breaking bread together
then we ain’t getting sh-t

[bridge 1: thaione davis]
more pennies in
the pocket
somebody getting richer? we ain’t
got sh-t. i think you better go evaluate
the options

[hook: thaione davis] (x4)
more pennies in
the pocket for profit. we’re trying to get dollars in
the process. somebody getting richer? we ain’t
got sh-t. i think you better go evaluate
the options

[verse 2: thaione davis]
“listen, i don’t trust n-ggas”
see, that’s what n-ggas told me. the same n-ggas that mold me is them
n-ggas that be holding me up. ok, let’s bust up out
the cycle, take it back to brownsville up in the 40’s, where they
linked up for survival. and black metro-
-polis full of opulence before the consequence of rede-
-veloping the occupants, from safeway to robert
taylor to the ibize, i hear the screams of the
souls that die violently. i see pennies still
spinning in the skeletons of women who was walking the track
tattered families of brothers who was breaking their
backs, and the effects of evolution and influence of
crack. feel like a puzzle with a million pieces, but only
few of ‘em match, and that’s the catch you was waiting on
twenty-two attacks—how you balling? i hear they got
a building full of coffins with br-ss-colored trimming. all the
top hits reaching for the prophets, but some of y’all
just playing for the profits and the pluses and the losses
and the spoils. where the bosses at? go buy a laundromat
open a corner store, real estate, reinvest
together, we’re never poor
