Paygrade Demo Songtext
I was on the avenue with a one-day bus card, playing hooky from my college
Chasing one that's hard to get, but nigga still got it
Had to do something about it
Send a souvenir uprooted
Like a flower that you grew and then repot it
Look, they gon' take the recipe, rerock it
I'm from where it's barely a recoil if they shot it
I was lucky all my lessons kept me guarded
Either God got me or a clover in my pocket
Chasing one that's hard to get, but nigga still got it
Had to do something about it
Send a souvenir uprooted
Like a flower that you grew and then repot it
Look, they gon' take the recipe, rerock it
I'm from where it's barely a recoil if they shot it
I was lucky all my lessons kept me guarded
Either God got me or a clover in my pocket
Either way, a blessing just took form in my pocket
Yeah
If all else fails at the end of the day
This could be the song you play
You want what's yours in every way
Then this could be the song you play
You want it now and don't wanna wait
But certain shit above ya pay grade
Meaning dollar short and a day late
Had to take the five-dollar attitude and make change
Like a credit bureau payment, I just had to make due
Watch from the side, that was all that they did
Post-game conference when they ask what they do
TV on mute, I ain't tryna hear it
Don't wanna put the work in, but you want the champagne
Might sweat until I'm shirtless, but it wasn't brand name
Might sign this shit in cursive, I'm in need of my check
I gamble with my life and haven't lost a bet yet
Why I feel this way, I
Might not ever know why
Just know blessings take time
Yeah
But if all else fails at the end of the day
This could be the song you play
You want what's yours in every way
Then this could be the song you play
You want it now and don't wanna wait
But certain shit above ya pay grade
Meaning dollar short and a day late
Had to take the five-dollar attitude and make change
Yeah
If all else fails at the end of the day
This could be the song you play
You want what's yours in every way
Then this could be the song you play
You want it now and don't wanna wait
But certain shit above ya pay grade
Meaning dollar short and a day late
Had to take the five-dollar attitude and make change
Like a credit bureau payment, I just had to make due
Watch from the side, that was all that they did
Post-game conference when they ask what they do
TV on mute, I ain't tryna hear it
Don't wanna put the work in, but you want the champagne
Might sweat until I'm shirtless, but it wasn't brand name
Might sign this shit in cursive, I'm in need of my check
I gamble with my life and haven't lost a bet yet
Why I feel this way, I
Might not ever know why
Just know blessings take time
Yeah
But if all else fails at the end of the day
This could be the song you play
You want what's yours in every way
Then this could be the song you play
You want it now and don't wanna wait
But certain shit above ya pay grade
Meaning dollar short and a day late
Had to take the five-dollar attitude and make change
