Poetics, bring the drums in
Got a check and ran it up
Got a check and ran it up
Got a check and ran it up
Got a check and ran it up
Got a check and ran that thang through
The roof and they still empty inside
Man these cats will never know the money never satisfies pride
Run it up, add a Benz to it
Get an entourage, add a couple friends to it
It don't matter man they all fugazi
And I ain't even trippin' it's the label that pays me
That's what your favorite rapper sound like
'Cause your favorite rapper never down right
Never squeezed a 30, never moved the pack
Never been ground zero down in Chiraq
Got a check and ran it up
And while they running checks up they
Running the death rate right up with it
Got a check and ran it up
And if you really cared about it you'd
Be ground zero where they there with it
Got a check and ran it up
At some point it's gotta be more than dollars and cents
Got a check and ran it up
And while the tenants getting slaughtered y'all still raising the rent
Aye, uh, aye, run it up
They told me run it up
Told y'all say go get a bag and you get a lot of luck
Told me baddies only love you if you got some buzz
I tried to give these chicks my heart and they ain't want the love
Came up out the trenches, young man in the jungle
I been roaring like a lion even though I struggle
I had to run it up, yeah I had to run it up
Break it down, go get a bag and try to get some love
Got a check and ran it up
And even if they love you they ain't love
You till you got a check and ran it up
Got a check and ran it up
You been messing with Medusa made these idols
To your rulers 'cause you tried to go and
Got a check and ran it up
And they ain't care about your problems they
Ain't really love your mama just because you had a
Got a check and ran it up
But it's okay because he rose up out the grave
And gave us faith so now we got a check and
Got a check and ran it up
At some point it's gotta be more than dollars and cents
Got a check and ran it up
And while the tenants getting slaughtered
Y'all still raising the rent, come on
