two-dollar ho...





i might  as well be a two-dollar ho...

waiting for your next instructions

being pimped into

a submissive state of stagnant mind

justifying why i'm not

good enough for your time



i might as well be a two-dollar ho...

trying to earn your respect,

move up from the rest of your hustle

trying to be the best ho i can be

hoping that you'll praise me



i might as well be a two-dollar ho...

stuck in a destructive lifestyle

and i believe i don't have a choice

'cause a ho don't know no better

and ain't strong enough to speak up

and is too weak to let it go

i've been smacked, slapped, and whipped;

your hands didn't touch me

so you don't see it or know



so i might as well be a two-dollar ho...

after all these years of hard work

a ho ain't got nothing to show

maybe it's time for me to leave,

run away from your tired ass game...



after all, a pimp ain't shit without his ho.
