Mista mista
Can I get five dollars?
So I can get something to eat
"Hell no, motherfucker
You can't get no money from me
'Cause every time I give you a dollar
You go get shot up with more and more needles
And you tell me that you're drug free
Drug free"
Mista mista
I haven't ate anything for a week
Can I get a quarter?
"Hell no, motherfucker
What can a quarter get you?
Nothing, motherfucker
You are just fucked up
Off them fucked up drugs
You know you need to fucking leave alone
But you keep telling me that you're drug free
Motherfucker
You ain't drug free, you're a fiend
And every time I try to help you
You pretend as if it's okay
Then later on in the week
You go back to shootin' needles, to sniffin'
Oh motherfucker, but you told me you were drug free
Drug free
You ain't drug free, motherfucker
So you damn well, can't get no motherfucking money from me"
