About This Track

'paystub' by ericdoa is a 2019 alternative track from 'DOA'. Over lyrics that trade in money-talk and scorched trust, the song rejects performative affection and frames fake love as a kind of transaction, with the repeated emphasis on “pay stub” turning financial status into a test of loyalty. There is a swaggering, confrontational edge to the delivery, as the narrator insists they will not be bought or sweetened, even as the other party keeps showing off their proof of purchase.

"paystub" is a track by ericdoa, from the album DOA, released 6th July 2019. The track is 2:17 long. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 4 articles about ericdoa.

Lyrics

paystub

(Ayy, ah)
(I'm not your lollipop, wow)
(Ah)
(I'm not your lollipop, wow)
(Ah)
Yeah, can't fuck with nobody showin' fake love (he on IG)
Showin' off a pay stub
Yeah, he must be stupid if he think that he can pay us (yeah, ah, baby, uh)
Baby, you just want my money, you can't take this from me
Always got your hands out like I owe you something
I don't owe you nothing, put that on my cousin (cousin)
Girl, you on some fuck shit, I might have to up this, ah
I always been up, huh, pussy, what you think? Huh (ayy, what you think?)
She wanna make love, sorry, baby, we can't link
Just like me, this shit gon' sing, it ain't nothin' but a thing (nothin' but a thing)
Hit my jeweler, what's it to you? I put water on my ring (I put water on my ring)
Your bitch got me on a poster, take off, testarossa
Might just switch it to the roaster, pussy, we don't know ya'
If he test me, we gon' roast him, I ain't friends with no one
If he lackin', then we catch him, guarantee that we gon' throw some
Baby, just want money, take this from me
Got your hands out, owe you something
Don't owe you bullshit, get the fuck back
Damn, ah, baby, uh
Baby, you just want my money, you can't take this from me
Always got your hands out like I owe you something
I don't owe you nothing, put that on my cousin (cousin)
Girl, you on some fuck shit, I might have to up this, ah
Got this shit inside my blood, swear it's embedded
This ain't simple shit, boy, you know I'm with synthetic
I always knew that I'd be up, boy, know I been said it
This point, you talkin' to yourself, girl, this shit this shit been deaded
I put wing on the coupe, we put them thangs out the roof
I hit this bang, then a rang, then pull the brains out his room
MVP, boy, I'll never lose, somehow he still ain't make a move
He tryna bitch me on some pop shit, I'll still take you out your shoes, uh
Like i'm Boosie, she gon' wipe me down, baby, how you like me now? (How you like me now?)
Finally, you've come around
Test me, then we got 'em down, watch it, don't speak too loud, woo (I'm done, I'm done, I'm done)
Ladies want money, take it from me
Got your hands out, owe you something
Ladies want money, take it from me
Got your hands out, owe you something

    ericdoa: "It really feels like I found my purpose in life, even though that's wild corny"

    Loads of acts claim to sound like the future, but 18-year-old up-and-coming ericdoa could well be it. Heading quickly for the big leagues, and with a forthcoming collab EP with glaive on the way, the buzz is real.
