No Such Thing

[Verse]

I bought pancake mix from a basehead on Franklin Avenue

For the sheer absurdity of his hustle

Gnawed knuckles, below freezing

Spoke with a stutter, spotted a mean limp as he was leavin'

Lean season, pacing, uh

Mentholated smoke from his nose escaped

Said he just came from the junction

Army duffel musta weighed a good fifty

Bootleg gospel DVDs and black porno

Can of SPAM, stained white tees, holes and tears

I joked, "who else wore those?"

Close talker, chapped lip like desert storm

Back up, buddy

Held his heart, said, "heart is self"

Free air markets

In a Crown Fried dining room, just sliding through

Hot air balloon, yeah I was lifted

Waitin' on bad food, why be rude?

I entertained and listened

Recognizin' ambition

There's no such thing as spare change

Nah, I'm good, I don't need it

Nah, I'm good, I don't need it

There's no such thing as spare change

Cruel game, hustle mania, respect the players
