Kevin Abstract
WANNA BE PAID*
[Intro: Kevin Abstract & Maya Angelou sample]
Swishahouse
Lift up your eyes upon this day breaking for you
Switch 'em out
Give birth again to the dream
Like Swishahouse
Women, children, men, take it into the palms of your hands
Switch 'em out
Mold it into the shape of your most private need
[Chorus: Kevin Abstract with Joba]
I don't wanna waste time in my bedroom tonight
I wanna get money, I wanna be on, I wanna be paid, paid
I don't wanna waste time in my bedroom tonight
I wanna get money, I wanna be on, I wanna be paid, paid
[Post-Chorus: Kevin Abstract]
I take no meds, I
Take no medications
I take no meds, I
Found a way to keep the devil waiting
I take no meds, I
Take no medications
I take no meds, I
Found a way to keep the devil waiting
[Bridge: Kevin Abstract]
Like, who you splitting profits with?
Ooh, boy, God forbid
I don't wanna see ya round here
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Who you splitting profits with?
Ooh, boy, God forbid
I don't wanna see ya round here
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Cha-ching
[Verse 1: Joba]
They say home is where the heart is
But I don't know where my heart is
I mean, I know where my heart is
If that's true, why I don't I feel safe in my own s—
[Verse 2: Kevin Abstract]
Bad motherfucker, why don't you shut your mouth?
This the South where I'm from, what is you yapping about?
I kept my glass in the room with a cam on the couch
Last time I seen my homies, I think Sam was in town
You ever question your father's morals? (Ayy)
You ever wonder if your brother loyal?
I always wonder if they're really insecurities
Or this how y'all n***as always plan on viewing me
[Verse 3: Dom McLennon]
Bobby Boucher with the pen
I want you so bad, I don't even need friends
I don't even need sleep—if you stick until the end
Find a clue that'll put together all the loose ends
I'm robbed, did you so, how you don't fall in if you want it?
Ghosts of choices that I could've made still haunt me
But I'm managing better knowing you're by my side
Managing better knowing you're by my side, yeah
