If You Don't Got It


If you got it flaunt it!
That's the way some people live.
They buy themselves expensive cars
and oh, the gifts they give.
They have exclusive houses
and they also have a maid.
The way they spend their money
makes me wonder what they're paid.
That's not the way I want to live.
It's not the life for me.
Would someone tell me how to stop
flaunting my poverty?

I'm not sure how not to flaunt it, ohme, if you figure it out, let me know. Great poem.
