Said it’s a sho’ fire testimony
Check it, whoa, rap on the do’
Whatcha know about being po’
Whatcha know about borrowing
From the neighbor next door
Whatcha know about bumming rides
Whatcha know about heaven, swallow your pride
What do you do when you’re through
When you’re always helping people and
Nobody’s there for you, come on now
What can I do or say
When you constantly standing in my face
Talking about

Said I only got 20 dollars
And me and my baby got to eat
Can you loan me 20 dollars

While

Besides being too busy, busy
Stressin’ me constantly

And you still want half of that
Repeat 2
