What does it mean?

What does it mean to live from a bag?
The words come from a song:
What I wear is all I have
We lost our home, I'm living from a bag
Yo mister bully, help me please
I'm flesh and blood, accept me please.

Dear Moody, It's a bit like "living out of a suitcase", which is a common expression. e. having a very basic standard of living, and perhaps not knowing where they will sleep every night.

Dear Moody,

It's a bit like "living out of a suitcase", which is a common expression. It means surviving day to day by using only the contents of a bag i.e. having a very basic standard of living, and perhaps not knowing where they will sleep every night.

Kind regards, Michael
