Read the lyric sheet
Intro
Static in the wire, heavy on the chest Counted every favor, put the talk to rest
Verse 1
Phone screen glowing like a ghost in the dark I was sleeping on the floor, waiting for the spark Now the circle getting smaller, cut the dead weight Eating caviar on a chipped ceramic plate You were silent when the winter hit the window pane Now you're calling just to see if I can stop the rain I don't recognize the digits on the caller ID Keep that same energy you had in twenty-three
Chorus
I got midnight receipts for the time I spent Every bridge I burned was a message sent Checked the balance, yeah the tax is overdue Don't be surprised when I don't answer you
Verse 2
Screenshots tucked in a folder on the cloud I don't need to bark, I just lead the whole crowd Remember when you told me that the dream was a reach? Now you're practicing the same sermon that I preach Saw the snakes in the grass through the infrared Read the subtitles of the things you never said Moving tactical, I'm dodging every fake embrace Leaving fingerprints on every single empty space
Bridge
(Stripped production, atmospheric pad) I remember every "no" I remember every face Watching how the shadows grow Running at a different pace
Verse 3
Now the penthouse view shows the city in the mist Crossed another name off the "never help" list Built the ladder out of iron, not a piece of wood Doing everything they told me that I never could Receipts printed out, ink drying on the page Watch the bird fly high, I've outgrown the cage No more favors, no more "let me get a quick loan" I’m a king on a hill, sitting on a stone throne
Chorus
I got midnight receipts for the time I spent Every bridge I burned was a message sent Checked the balance, yeah the tax is overdue Don't be surprised when I don't answer you
Bridge
I remember every "no" I remember every face Watching how the shadows grow Running at a different pace
Chorus
I got midnight receipts for the time I spent Every bridge I burned was a message sent Checked the balance, yeah the tax is overdue Don't be surprised when I don't answer you
Outro
Payment received, debt is all clear Don't check the mirror, the ghost is right here Midnight receipts.

Payment received, debt is all clear Don't check the mirror, the ghost is right here
