Apathy - Check to Check lyrics
[Apathy - Check to Check lyrics]
I'm trying to read between the lines
Show me how the war's won
Rich dad, poor dad, I just had the poor one
Call me Charlie Bucket, attitude is fuck it
No golden ticket so I'm balling on a budget
And rap money's bullshit
Nothing like it used to be
I used to be used to Gs
Blew through them foolishly
And fuck a nine to five
I live life for rocking these mics
The only time I wake up early
Is for court dates or flights
I'm living check to check
But I ain't talking Nikes
I'm leaking money like BP with oil pipes
It's funny how it makes you feel
Like you ain't a man
Trying to justify why you
Making payment plans
I never made it cause I never
Tried to make you dance
I'm making ends meet
While Diddy's making bands
I want to thank my fans
The ones that show respect
I'm like projects in Prague
Living check to check
To the end of the week
I live by the beat like
You live check to check
If you don't move yo' feet then I don't eat
So we like neck to neck
To the end of the week
I live by the beat like
You live check to check
If you don't move yo' feet then I don't eat
So we like neck to neck
I never trick on some bitch
Cause tricking's for the weak
The only way I make it rain
Is cause Ev' did this beat
I'm sitting in my car
Reclined back in my seat
Phones about to get shutoff and
I ain't even eat
I'm waiting so long for a check from a song
By the time I get to cash
It every penny of it's gone
Gone baby gone, I'm trying to stay strong
If it wasn't for my family and my
Friends I wouldn't be around this long
Like me and Louie used to
Live off only Little Debbies
'Cause they only cost a quarter
Can't afford a penny more
To get a value meal
Wish somebody would've taught me how to deal
But I ain't talking about trees, or keys
Or blow i never knew how to be
Responsible with my dough
I radiate being broke, you almost see me glow
I'm the Incredible Hulk of
Blowing money for show
And so I rock the show to
Make my empty pockets grow
I'm contemplating changing jobs if
The money's better
Cause making paper off rap now
Is tougher than leather
I love music forever
But we can't stay together
I told myself I'd never ever ever ever ever
Show me how the war's won
Rich dad, poor dad, I just had the poor one
Call me Charlie Bucket, attitude is fuck it
No golden ticket so I'm balling on a budget
And rap money's bullshit
Nothing like it used to be
I used to be used to Gs
Blew through them foolishly
And fuck a nine to five
I live life for rocking these mics
The only time I wake up early
Is for court dates or flights
I'm living check to check
But I ain't talking Nikes
I'm leaking money like BP with oil pipes
It's funny how it makes you feel
Like you ain't a man
Trying to justify why you
Making payment plans
I never made it cause I never
Tried to make you dance
I'm making ends meet

The ones that show respect
