Something of Mine

I give you this dollar which you can see and touch and know it’s real.
Although you already have something of mine, which is my friendship which no one can steal.

I give you this dollar and you can see that it’s authentic, it’s not a fake.
But you already have something of mine and that is my loyalty which no one can take.

I give you this dollar of paper and ink which one day will fade, fall apart and blow away.
But you already have something of mine which is brotherly love and in my heart, you will always stay.
