Spare Change

[Verse 1] I was walking around the corner, I was drinking body armor I was talking on the phone, I was speaking to my mama It was people outside in their panties and pajamas I swear, I think I seen more pigs than a farmer I finally break past the onlookers and mourners I see the caution tape, I knew I was getting warmer I'm looking at the units and the words read trauma Oh, this the same shit I seen on "Law And Order" I see a white band on the side of said corner And instantly I knew that somebody was a goner Seen a hand sticking out, but the body it was covered Then I heard a cop say he was a junkie and a stonеr A young girl wept, she was yelling for a fathеr I'm praying that the bum didn't die beside his daughter I know the next home that she going to is foster So now I'm looking at the dead nigga like a monster I see a red cup laying next to his body, it's probably alcohol, so I'm thinking, why bother? But what I seen next, man, it probably would've shocked ya What was in his cup It was a dollar [Hook] Shake, shake Don't be stingy, spend some change Shake, shake Don't be stingy, where the change Shake, shake Don't be stingy, spend some change Shake, shake Don't you know that bums have a name?

[Verse 2] A couple years later, I became an undertaker You know the one that put you in the ground, a cremate ya I see a lot of people. I see elders. I see babies, but for some odd reason, I just can't forget this lady I'm looking at her face, she's laying on a table I don't know where I seen her, was it Instagram or cable? I'm searching for a name and then I read the label Last name Johnson, first name Mabel Her hair was all curled with a necklace full of pearls Had a tattoo on her chest saying "Long live Earl" To most, she was a stripper, but to me she just a girl Who was searching for some love, became a product of the world Then it hit me like a ton of bricks I know her She was the daughter of the junkie and a stoner She was loved, but nobody ever told her She lost her daddy, now another nigga own her [Hook] Shake, shake Don't be stingy, spend some change Shake, shake Don't be stingy, where the change Shake, shake Don't be stingy, spend some change Shake, shake Don't you know that bums have a name?
