Loose Change lyrics
by Oblé Reed
[Verse 1]
I be posted on the street side, nothing but a beat and a blanket
I'm just asking if a brother got some change, and I ain't talkin' money out your pocket takin' quarters out your wallet
I'm just askin' for a second out your day There's so much going on and I know you probably seen it
Posted on the Gram, and I know you prolly tweeted
And yeah you did a little but I really need a lot
I know I put you on the spot, but I need everything you got
I need some Tom Cruise type action, like we 'bout it IRL, not just type action
Not rest how we rest backin', this can't be another case of us all cappin'
Nah, that can't happen, need to see some real
[Chorus]
Change for me, do you got somе change for artist
Just an artist tryna see a little change?
You ain't gotta еmpty out your pockets, but if really, that's an option then the world won't stay the same
Everything is for the team 'cause we all one side
Crazy one person's change could affect the worldwide
It don't matter how much you got on you, I'm just tryna reach inside ya, I'm just asking for a lot of bit of change
[Verse 2]
Let me get a little personal, I done seen too many people close to me not given to it, everything they got
Whether you be silent or a racist, you still on the same basis and you might as well be kneeling with the cops
Don't act like you can't breathe now, cause I been holding my breath for too long
Same story, same tune, same song
They say that the history repeats itself and we can all attest to it
Honestly, I'm done with being nice, don't ask me where the pain at, you know where the blame at
Talking 'bout the cars, but the heart is where the flame at
See my brothers killed and you wonder how I take that?
Fire to the money and the system that they care 'bout
See, y'all worried 'bout the wrong change if you worried 'bout destruction
What's the purpose of a system if it don't function?
I couldn't even count it on my fingers all the times we been wronged, and four hundred plus years is too long, so I'm asking for some
[Chorus]
Change for me, do you got some change for artist
Just an artist tryna see a little change?
You ain't gotta empty out your pockets, but if really, that's an option then the world won't stay the same
Everything is for the team 'cause we all one side
Crazy one person's change could affect the worldwide
It don't matter how much you got on you, I'm just tryna reach inside ya, I'm just asking for a lot of bit of change
[Bridge]
It's time for you to stand up, if you got your knee on our necks you better stand up
If you been sitting sideline you better stand up
If you on the frontlines we know they can't stand us
We all walking hand in hand just like how we planned it
If you got your knee on our necks you better stand up
If you been sitting the sideline you better stand up
If you on the frontlines we know they can't stand us
We all walking hand in hand just like how we planned it
[Verse 3]
And we still workin' for it, and I don't care if I die it's what I'm working towards
It's for my brothers in the sky cause they deserved some more
And I be working all my life so imma work some more
And I don't care if I die it's what I'm working towards
And I been hurting all my life so what's a little more?
It's for my brothers in the sky cause they deserved some more
And I been working all my life so imma work some more, ay
[Chorus]
Change for me, do you got some change for artist
Just an artist tryna see a little change?
You ain't gotta empty out your pockets, but if really, that's an option then the world won't stay the same
Everything is for the team 'cause we all one side
Crazy one person's change could affect the worldwide
It don't matter how much you got on you, I'm just tryna reach inside ya, I'm just asking for a lot of bit of change, yeah
[Outro]
A lot of bit of change, nothing for a lot of bit of change, yeah, yeah
