Intro
Phone buzzin’ midnight, bills line up in rows Free trials turned sharks, now they circlin’ my soul
Verse 1
Signed up for the stream just to watch one show Forgot to cancel, now it monthly reloads Fitness app swear I’d be jacked by June Still eatin’ cold noodles in my bedroom Cloud storage holdin’ pics I don’t need Payin’ rent to my memories Every swipe feel light but it stack real fast Small leaks in the ship make it sink like that
Chorus
Cancel my card, I’m cuttin’ the cord They tax my sleep, my time, my thoughts Cancel my card, enough is enough I ain’t rentin’ my life just to feel unlocked
Verse 2
Algorithm say I might like this Another charge, I don’t even notice Music, movies, food at my door Payin’ convenience fees for boredom They sell peace in a monthly plan Trial ends, now you stuck, my man Every app want a piece of my check Nickel-and-dime me to financial stress
Bridge 1
I just wanted ease, not a leash on me Every “only five ninety-nine” addin’ quietly Freedom cost less when you own your time Had to read the fine print line by line
Verse 3
Called the bank, yeah I froze the feed Cut four services, felt instant relief Deleted apps I ain’t touched in weeks Peace got louder when silence free Now my money move how I say it should Not autopilot, I’m back in the hood Of my own decisions, clear and sharp Ain’t no app runnin’ my debit card
Chorus
Cancel my card, I’m cuttin’ the cord They tax my sleep, my time, my thoughts Cancel my card, enough is enough I ain’t rentin’ my life just to feel unlocked
Bridge 2
They sell the future in tiny fees Till you wake up broke but digitally clean I took control, yeah I drew that line My wallet breathe for the first damn time
Chorus
Cancel my card, cut the cord (yeah) No more rent on my peace of mind (nah) Cancel my card, I want it all Time, money, silence, mine
Chorus
Cancel my card, I’m done playin’ along I read the terms, now the terms are gone Cancel my card, I reclaimed my part Can’t auto-charge a conscious heart
Outro
Closed the tab, let the screen go dark Best subscription was bettin’ on my heart
Inside the recording
Phone buzzin’ midnight, bills line up in rows Free trials turned sharks, now they circlin’ my soul
Cancel my card, I’m cuttin’ the cord They tax my sleep, my time, my thoughts
Closed the tab, let the screen go dark Best subscription was bettin’ on my heart
