    I think the song would have been better if it was more fleshed out with another verse, but I don't think that makes that a bad line.

    that's NOT what the song is about. cmon, Narsh. you're better than that...
    him giving money to bums is a metaphor, and in this case, it's him refusing to give back to god what god gave to him. it could also be seen as him refusing to give to the people what god gave to him. i think this is kendrick even further questioning whether or not he deserves what he's received in life/fame/fortune. why him? -- doesn't this belong to everyone?

    All those interpretations are valid man, I just don't think his writing needed to be so on the nose. He didn't need to spell it out. It leaves a bad taste in my brain

    Well the problem is that you're tasting with your brain. Might need to get that checked out.
