Ya Don't Know What Poverty Is

[Toe Jay Simpson]

Breh real poverty if when you have to pray to God for the strength not to have to do something foul to someone to get what you need

Cause he’ll front me they Sat Nite Special if I bring him back $40 instead of $30

You mean the brown bag delivery? That's how I got food sometimes. I was given the bag and told don't look in it. Cross the field to Peach street project and give it to Peaches. Peaches was a gangbanger with a silk press. I got a 20 for it.

Sardines and rice that night. My Mama ask where I got the money I told her I was cutting yards and washing cars, then I graduated to Peaches showing me to cook it soft or cook it hard.
