Spent
Bop Alloy

VERSE 1

My favorite holiday is Christmas

Though I hardly qualify as Christian

Got that good hair 'cause I'm part Indian

Plus whole fam go hard at Thanksgiving

If I'm missing it's cuz I'm lined up

Trying to give'em my business before its marked up

Stiff arm shoppers like it's all mine what

Boy dem deep discounts done got me fired up

Don't fool with Kwanzaa dog it's so wack

They don't even do gifts and I ain't pro black

Man I'm pro green and I gots to get it

Second that I got it I gots ta spend it

All brand names, I’m looking splendid

Yall got no class like yall got suspended

Bling for misses copped my son Batman

All praises due to jolly old fatman, Amen!


HOOK

Man it just don’t make no sense

I can hardly pay my rent

All this doe that I done spent

Out here trying to cop these gifts

Just don’t make no sense

All these festivities got me spent

Times are hard so hard we went

Almost spent up every cent


BREAK



VERSE 2

If my girl copped me a wack gift then we’re thru

Might take back all that I copped for her too

To be my boo and worthy of praise

Need a PS4... plus some new Js

I’m out here burning up doe real wreckless

Swapped my check with a diamond necklace

Nothing like diamonds to say “I love her”

When you tryna slide her the stocking stuffer

I know money can’t buy me love but


I’m seeing more action Ji’like, somewhat

Screwed like a lugnut when my funds shrank

My account’s blank, no cash in the bank

No gas in my tank Mrs. Clause leaving

Nothing left to give, she done receiving

No longer present, yet it’s a wrap... ironic

Searching for gift receipts as I sip my tonic


HOOK


VERSE 3

They talking ‘bout boycotting Black Friday

If I had my way, it would be 5 days

Then they talking ‘bout supporting Black business

I’m like it’s called Black Friday.. isn’t it

Alright, I know that a tad too ignorant

But I’d like to know why on earth should I give a ish

When a TV worth a G’s now three… hundred

Everything in me say hit the street running

Then they say we’re that second class citizen,

But we’re the first to give up all my dividends

Outside of the neighborhood that we are living in

Meanwhile our life’s treated like it’s insignificant

Sure plenty times the service be dreadfool

‘Cause we ain’t really customers, thought of as a threat fool

And the folks our tax pay to serve and protect us

Most don’t do either let alone respect us

So why should I care about a holiday special

Tryna save a dime, when we need to save our self

Too many of us dying and we funding movement

They gonna kill your cousin, you ain’t gon’ do ish?!

Who the real menace? Ain’t hard to call it

But some of the ammo to fight back’s in your wallet

They don’t worship prophets they worship profit

Make them the target and hit them in the pocket

Pow-er!!!
