Spare Change
Landon McNamara Lyrics

Spare some spare change, Mr. Millionaire
Asking for monetary help from a wealthy person

I'ma make those changes you never did
I'll work towards making changes that the rich person has neglected to make

Look at all there is that could be done
There are many things that require attention and change

Said it's critical what's going on
The situation is serious and needs immediate focus

Don't wanna see another brotha die from heroin
Wishing for an end to drug addiction and related deaths in the community

Don't wanna see another baby with no dad and mom
Desiring for an end to the cycle of children growing up without parents

From a foster care to a fucked up home
Children in foster care often end up in bad situations

So clear out these streets, no more corruption
Asking for an end to corrupt practices that contribute to crime and violence

Little man, use your hands no need for you to fight with guns
Encouraging non-violent solutions for conflict resolution

Little girl can't care for baby, use protection
Encouraging responsible sexual behavior to prevent unintended pregnancies

Woman, nine months better prepare for be a mom
Encouraging mothers-to-be to be prepared and responsible in their role as a parent

Don't be fooled how I sing, I ain't no Rastaman
Acknowledging that while the music may be influenced by Rastafarianism, the artist himself is not

If you wanna get down, then you know it's on
If you're ready to make a change, then let's do it

I'll fight dirty, but my heart is clean
Will work towards making changes, even if it's a difficult fight while maintaining good moral character

I got good intentions, and that's all I need
Positive change begins with good intentions

Tainted physical but a mental game
The struggle is both physical and mental

More corruption than walls are bleeding
Corruption is a major issue that needs to be addressed

From people's cash and for their freedom
People are being exploited through corrupt practices that affect their financial and personal freedom

Some swimmin', I'm just floatin'
Some people are succeeding, while others are struggling to stay afloat

Some flyin', I'm just coastin'
Some people are able to soar to great heights, while the artist is just trying to maintain his current direction

But every movement is with devotion
Despite challenges, every action is done with dedication and commitment

So I, I bring it to you with pure emotion
The message is delivered with sincerity and passion

In order to move on we gotta let it go
To make progress, sometimes we need to let go of the past and move forward

Government tryin' to choke me, but I won't tap out
There are forces working against the artist, but he won't give up

Politicians can't believe all that what come out their mouths
Politicians make promises they often can't keep

Well, I'm gonna fight the big boss, and leave him on his back
Will take on the powerful and win

No respect unless you respect me, too
Demanding respect as a two-way street

But, I'ma teach the mute what they gotta do
Helping those who can't speak up to make progress
