[Intro]
Windows down
Sun in my lap
Whole block hummin'
Heart talkin' back (yeah)
[Verse 1]
Used to count coins in a coffee can
Now I count time, tryna hold my stance
Mama said "boy, keep your soul on you"
So I tuck that deep like a folded truth
Homies hit my line for a quick escape
They just wanna vent, I just wanna pray
On a good day, we all laugh too loud
On a bad one, we still show up, same crowd
I seen gold get lost in a paper chase
I seen love stay broke but it kept its grace
Lookin' at my past like an empty stage
All that hurt, all that heat, turned to center weight
[Chorus]
This that loose change gospel
From the curb to the cosmos
Every scar got a barcode
Ring it up, let the heart glow (yeah)
This that walk-through-fire talk
Turn a dead end to a side walk
If you feel that weight in your chest, don't stop
Breathe in, let the fear fall off (fall off)
[Verse 2]
Whole world mad at a cracked phone screen
But we scroll past folks that ain’t ate in a week
They say "post that quote, that'll make you deep"
I say "call your pops, that’ll help you sleep"
Politics play like a rivalry game
Talk real change, they just spin that shame
I ain’t got answers, I just got questions
Like, who heals healers when they feel threatened?
I grew up where the sirens sing at dawn
But the aunties still dance in the front yard calm
Card table out, talk big, play spades
Turn pain to a joke, turn loss to a wave
[Chorus]
This that loose change gospel
From the curb to the cosmos
Every scar got a barcode
Ring it up, let the heart glow (let it glow)
This that walk-through-fire talk
Turn a dead end to a side walk
If you feel that weight in your chest, don't stop
Breathe in, let the fear fall off (yeah, fall off)
[Bridge]
If I fall, I fall forward (forward)
Palms on the ground, not the corner
I been wrong, been right, been quiet
Still tryna choose love, that riot
Every day that I wake, that’s mercy
If the past call back, it can’t hurt me
I just ride, just ride, head clear
Whole sky in the rearview, right here (right here)
[Chorus]
This that loose change gospel
From the curb to the cosmos
Every scar got a barcode
Ring it up, let the heart glow
This that walk-through-fire talk
Turn a dead end to a side walk
If you feel that weight in your chest, don't stop
Breathe in, let the fear fall off (uh)
Let it fall off
Let it fall off
Breathe in, let the fear fall off
