i gotta cup full of change 

pour out people looking at me strange

got scruff that hang lower then your  chains

 i drink the water i collect in my cup from the rain

catch the bus travel block to block there isnt a purse out of my range

hold my cup up proud everybody knows my name

little kids pointing fingers at me like im the one to blame

from shop to shop tryin to get my hands on whatever you got 

shirts, sox, even the packiging it came in i need a cardboard box

the world is rough, my situation is drastic

never lose my touch i need some sense for real but all they flash is plastic

want the truth about where your money goes when it drops in to my cup full of plenty woes

back into the economy where do you think i get all my jcpenny chlothes

im in a sinking boat, my home sunk and im barely afloat

holding on to a piece of styrofoam like its my last hope

rationalize the situation from a perspective of depreciation

my dollars losing value because its change im making i work hard

get paid in nickles and dimes its a heck of a job

the definition of 3rd world, i skipped one and two 

look up at the sky in the night you might catch me talking to the moon

i free my soul the breeze of the night cold puts a smile on my face

sneaking around on my tippy toes from place to place

i extend my grace by cleaning up your dinner plates

and leave with haste i dont want to overextend my stay

your home is your dome my streets is my turf

now you understand why i get mad when you step on this part of my earth

no place to go, to call my own, my home

 i reside besides the alleys and dumpsters and share a place with the flies

sometimes i get a tear in my eye from the stink that im by

cant handle the stench of all the leftover chicken fried rice

up all night if you listen close you can hear the world cry

feel the rain and its pain life is a game and right now its a tie

you help me out by lending me coins but dont get it twisted 

im returning the favor we both givin into  each others own self interest 

i take your change and in return you looking for gods forgiveness

with your coins you supporting my unorthodox business
