Paycheck Lyrics

Yo, I'm waitin' on that check, got my eyes on the prize

Countin' down the days, man, I'm sick of these lies

Clock tickin' slow, feelin' heavy in my chest

Bill stackin' high, man, this life's a damn test

Thought I'd see that paper, but it's lookin' real light

Open up the envelope, now I'm ready to fight

What the fuck is this? This can't be my pay

Just enough to cover rent, now I'm feelin' betrayed

Got that rent due, phone bill, need some gas

But this check's a joke, man, it's flyin' by fast

Ain't no way I'm livin' like I'm stuck in this grind

Cause I can't keep doin' the same shit, lose my mind

Got that rent due, phone bill, need some gas

But this check's a joke, man, it's flyin' by fast

Ain't no way I'm livin' like I'm stuck in this grind

Cause I can't keep doin' the same shit, lose my mind

Buckin' up my options, gotta make a new plan

Life's too short to stay broke

Gotta hustle, understand, I see my co-workers

Yeah, they all lookin' stressed

But I got that green, and I know I'm blessed

Ain't no way I'm sittin' back, waitin' for a handout

Gonna flip this grip, man, I'm ready to stand out

Sellin' bud on the low, keep it quiet, don't shout

Can't do the same thing, gotta find a way out

Fuck waitin' on a check, I'm done with that shit

Gonna make my own way, gotta hustle and grit

Turnin' dreams into plans, watch me rise from the ground

I'll be the one they envy, the king with the crown

I'll be that plug, man, keep it on the down low

Got the fire in my pocket, watch my empire grow

A little hustle here, a little grind there

Watchin' all my bills fade, breathe that fresh air

I'm tired of checkin' my phone, waitin' for that alert

Livin' paycheck to paycheck, man, that shit really hurts

So I'm risin' up quick, stackin' green like a tree

Make my own damn path, can't let fear control me

Ain't no room for excuses, time to level up

While they complain and whine, I'll be fillin' my cup

Got the game in my hands, watch my hustle unfold

I'm the king of my fate, never do what I'm told

So I'm out here grindin, makin' moves in the dark

Got my eyes on the prize, yeah, I'm ready to spark

From the break room to the block, I'll be flippin' that green

Turnin' dreams into plans, man, I'm livin' the dream

Ain't no more waitin, I'm the master of my fate

Gonna rise from the ashes, let them all hate

When I pull up in the whip, they'll see I'm the man

From the struggle to the hustle, you don't understand

Fuck that wrong check, I'm buildin' my throne

Gotta hustle hard, baby, I'm in it alone

Can't do the same thing, gotta switch up the game

From waitin' on a check to makin' my name

I'm out here schemin, got my mind on a stack

While they pushin' papers, I'm just pushin' this pack

Yeah, I'm servin' my coworkers, keep it low-key

But I'm tired of bein' broke, man, I'm ready to be free

Got my eyes on the prize, gotta keep my grind tight

Ain't nobody gonna stop me, I'll be takin' flight

From the cubicle to the block, I'm

I'm out here schemin, got my mind on a stack

While they pushin' papers, I'm just pushin' this pack

Yeah, I'm servin' my coworkers, keep it low-key

But I'm tired of bein' broke, man, I'm ready to be free

Got my eyes on the prize, gotta keep my grind tight

Ain't nobody gonna stop me, I'll be takin' flight

From the cubicle to the block
