Begging For Change (Feat. Shemekia Copeland & Ronnie Baker Brooks)

Brother on the corner asks for something to eat
I look down and I see he's got no shoes on his feet
He says all my kids are hungry, my rent is past due
Brother can l get a little change from you

Begging for change, begging for change
The whole world's begging for change
Begging for change, begging for change
The whole world's begging for change

The working class needed a raise
'Cause they can't make it on minimum wage
Politicians keeping a seat occupied
Rich getting richer while the poor is denied

Taught to hate taught to divide
Taught to keep the love locked up inside
Just open your heart let love come through
Break down these walls between me and you

There's some bad dudes on the corner hustling the beat
Sisters and her babies with nothing to eat
The same old game with an invisible rope
Hanging from hope hooked on dope

Begging for change, begging for change
The whole world's begging for change
Begging for change, begging for change
The whole worlds' begging for change

Begging for change
The whole world's begging
Begging for change
The whole world's begging for change
We're begging for change
Begging for change
The whole world's begging
Begging for change
The whole world's begging for change
Begging for change
