Dane Lawrence - If I Make A Dollar lyrics

[Intro: Dane Lawrence] Told my n***as we gone find a way If I make a dollar it'll make my day Yeah (We gone make it) Make a dollar Told my lady we gone make it bae Yeah (That's right) Ugh [Verse 1: Dane Lawrence] Born leader Born blessed but born bleeding Born dying I'm surviving I'm still breathing Might as well make the most of it I might change the world for both us! This ain't just hard work I'm doing God's work Black boy white world what am I worth? My guess the price of a bullet I'm in a fight for my life trying to beat the system with bullwhips Hard to smell the bullsh** When you living down in the sewer Look at the homes we were raised in No wonder n***as is crazy But this is all we know Grow to love it won't leave If they k**ed Martin for dreaming We call this home we defeated! 40 acres & mule Wake up we the real jacka**es We k** each other while they laugh at us Been marching for 50 years ain't nothing change but our sneakers Still got holes in our souls but they will never break our spirit (No!) [Hook: Dane Lawrence] Told my n***as we gone find a way If I make a dollar it'll make my day Told my lady we gone make it bae If I make a dollar it'll make my day If I make a dollar it'll make my day Told my n***as we gone find a way Told my lady we gone make it bae If I make a dollar it'll make my day [Verse 2: Dane Lawrence] Honest n***a Can't survive on this honest living The system poisoned so he pushing poison to feed his children Said he only sell dope to white people Said he gone f** them up 'til we all equal Well get your shmoney Free Bobby the streets still Rowdy I mean you can't look down on Cosby if you pop molly We all got our vices This gift of life is far from priceless & I'm banking on this plan like tomorrow's promised I was told life is just a dream Gotta stay awoke Know that life ain't always what it seems I'm trying to stay afloat Lord knows a n***a can't swim They put me on this boat Took me from my coast Whipped us if we spoke Read or wrote a note Hung me from this rope Fed us sh** while we made them rich Why u think we broke? Where's the hope? Always seemed like money gave 'em power So I'ma grind until the day we got ours [Hook: Dane Lawrence] Told my n***as we gone find a way If I make a dollar it'll make my day Told my lady we gone make it bae If I make a dollar it'll make my day If I make a dollar it'll make my day Told my n***as we gone find a way Told my lady we gone make it bae If I make a dollar it'll make my day Told my n***as we gone find a way If I make a dollar it'll make my day Told my lady we gone make it bae If I make a dollar it'll make my day If I make a dollar it'll make my day Told my n***as we gone find a way Told my lady we gone make it bae If I make a dollar it'll make my day
