Payback

Uh, payback, the big payback
Dark on both sides, the dress code black
Count my money up, I need my racks
Sellin' a dream, but I'ma need that back
Back, back, back, I can't go back
Dark on both sides, the dress code black
Count my money up, I need my racks (uh)
Sellin' a dream, but I'ma need that back

Ayo, I'm tryna make that new age money
Dark Knight, Bruce Wayne money
I swipe, I don't do change on me
Move like Dushane, you know my crewmate Sully
When it's on top, boy, we had to move straight gully and that
Like, I hope you've got my money with that
Yeah, it's funny 'til the front door come off the latch
Took the U-turn and then we spun it right back
Funny how we coloured, but we covered in black

Baby, it's all covered, smooth, yet I'm oh, so rugged
20 seconds to go, so solid
Or was it 21? Forgive me, I was young
I was 12 making riddims while they twiddling their thumbs
Who in they right mind would leave the biscuit for the crumbs?
Business in the slums, niggas fiddlin' the funds
But I multiply, then I triple up the sum
I told 'em, "Are you finished or you done?"

Uh, payback, the big payback
Dark on both sides, the dress code black
Count my money up, I need my racks
Sellin' a dream, but I'ma need that back
Back, back, back, I can't go back
Dark on both sides, the dress code black
Count my money up, I need my racks
Sellin' a dream, but I'ma need that back (yeah)

Speak a money language, can't spot the accent
Poetry in motion, my pen look like a MAC-10
Moving like the 10-10, prove it like I'm Tintin
Rap my freedom like a gift, and I ain't seen the trap since
Long day, no sleep, I was doin' mad trips
Mind doing backflips, crease in the Stan Smiths
Plenty other fish in the sea, but they catfish
Not even in a bank we trust, it's in the mattress

Walk up in the office like you know me now
'Cause every other record got that Kojey Sound
Black lists, black skin couldn't hold me down
A black queen gave birth to a golden child
From 1993, I've been fucking up the narrative
Man, it feel good to be black, there's no comparison
Don't let the ivory towers come distract you
Until we multiply black wealth, fuck a statue

Uh, payback, the big payback
Dark on both sides, the dress code black
Count my money up, I need my racks
Sellin' a dream, but I'ma need that back
Back, back, back, I can't go back
Dark on both sides, the dress code black
Count my money up, I need my racks
Sellin' a dream, but I'ma need that back

Ayy, ayy, dresscode black
Oh, ayy, ayy, need my racks
Oh, ayy, ayy, need that back
Ayy, ayy, dresscode black
Oh, ayy, ayy, need my racks
Oh, ayy, ayy, need that back
