The start of this children’s story finds Danny leaving the house to pick up some groceries. Things don’t go as planned.
I just wonder bread implies that he had (and most likely still does have) money on his mind. Back in the day when he didn’t have any money, and had to use food stamps to get bread, and now as well, but this time he’s just trying to get more.
Additionally, Danny’s pronunciation of “I just wonder bread” to sound like “I just want the bread,” which reaffirms the rest of the lyrics as well.
Danny has spoken on the clans influence on his music growing up. This song could be a nod to Wu-Tang’s “Tearz” in which RZA discusses the death of his little brother on his way back from the store getting Wonderbread in the first verse. Unfortunately the God’s brother was braver than Danny and stood up for himself and it ended with him being gunned down. I’d take a head stomp over having my brother die in my arms any day. Consider yourself lucky Dan
