A Simple Fact

He was from the other side of the equator,
I crossed over and became my people's traitor.
Never looked back, didn't even say "See you later."
My luck changed,
I had so much I was dropping change.
Abe was looking up every single time,
Waiting to dazzle that dime.
But I had mine.
He may have been from the other side of the tracks
But now that's where I'm at.
