Selling Souls
Pay me in compliments, keep your money
The unbreakable one wishes not to be bribed
A pride that cannot be loaned
Expensive swagger that can't be borrowed
I stand alone with courage adjacent to my hip
Wanting to be loved and not purchased
Dollars will not make me fold nor will it make me change
A bulletproof ideology and a hardened cranium
Those who attempt to check me, undoubtedly bounce
For this soul, is not for sale
