Intro
Morning light hit the phone, bills say hello Coffee cold, but the grind still ready to go Receipts in my pocket like they talking to me Every dollar got a story, every story ain’t free
Verse 1
Landlord texting early like it’s family news Same place, higher number, guess we paying for views Mama say save money, dad say stand on your feet Both right, but the fridge still sounding like defeat Gas needle flirting with the letter on E I know the streets math different than what schools teach Clock punch dreams, dreams punch back Life charge interest every time you relax
Pre-chorus
Everybody hustling just to stay in the frame Same block, new price, different name If time is money, we broke on sleep Still rich in heart, so we grind that deep
Chorus
Check the receipt, yeah, read it twice Life been taxing just to live this life Hands in the air if you paying that price Still standing strong, yeah, we paying that price
Verse 2
Apps on my phone trying to rent my time Side road money just to keep the lights Boss say “team,” but the math say solo Clock out tired, still chasing tomorrow Old heads told me “slow money last” Young ones show me how fast things pass Same dream, just a newer screen Different tools, but the hunger the same
Bridge 1
I seen stress turn laughs into silence Seen hope live where the odds get violent Still we toast with whatever we pour To the fact we here, still wanting more
Verse 3
I ain’t rich yet, but my word stay solid Still help my people even when my wallet modest Learned value ain’t just numbers on paper It’s time with the ones who don’t switch their flavor They can raise the cost, can’t tax my name Can’t price my heart, can’t own my flame If the road get steep, I adjust my pace Still moving forward, still holding space
Chorus
Check the receipt, yeah, read it twice Life been taxing just to live this life Hands in the air if you paying that price Still standing strong, yeah, we paying that price
Bridge 2
We learned quick how to stretch one dollar Turn small wins into something proper From the stoop to the boardroom dream Same people, same fight, new scene
Chorus
Check the receipt, yeah, read it twice Life been taxing just to live this life Hands in the air if you paying that price Still standing strong, yeah, we paying that price
Chorus
Check the receipt, yeah, read it twice Life been taxing just to live this life Hands in the air if you paying that price Still standing strong, yeah, we paying that price
Outro
We still here when the math don’t add Still got faith when the days feel bad Receipt check done, we breathe, then proceed Tomorrow calling, yeah, we answer indeed
Inside the recording
Morning light hit the phone, bills say hello Coffee cold, but the grind still ready to go
Everybody hustling just to stay in the frame Same block, new price, different name
We still here when the math don’t add Still got faith when the days feel bad
