Labels put their offering like a reverend
Hit a home run and pass the plate like collections
from Omen (Ft. Denzil Porter, DyMe-A-DuZiN & XV) – Everlasting Lyrics on Rap Genius
Meaning
XV compares the offerings that labels give to artists or him to a clergyman or Christian minister putting money in the donation box. Which sounds like a pretty pathetic offer knowing that most church donations are just spare change.
The baseball reference XV gives also compares to church donations.
when you hit home runs, you go over all the bases and lastly step over the home plate
passing the plate as in passing the offering hat or box
Either way, you’re scoring.
