Jasper Brown - Paper Lyrics




No deals pro bono, CashApp, Venmo
Or pass the dough in a sealed envelope (Thanks)
My palms itching, I'm on a mission for large riches
And if you aren't kindred might have to charge interest (Word)
But only if you got corporate funding
'Cause then you're capable of making blessings more abundant
Running a business, don't message or bother me
Unless it's to invest in intellectual property
See Freedom ain't free, neither is freelance work
Leeches thinking something sweet like pecan syrup
Demand what I deserve 'cause I'm worth the loot
Entire purse in full, it's not personal, it's just
I'm a professional, punctual, prepared, personable
A pleasure when I'm working with you
But if my name is on your flyer or promotional page
Then I'm supposed to be paid before approaching the stage
So listen

Just pay me, my labor it ain't free
Do me no favors, show me some paper
Just pay me, my labor it ain't free
Do me no favors, show me some paper

Being your own bank-roller before others notice
What you can earn 'em is burden
But betting on yourself in the beginning benefits you when you're burgeoning
Less inclined to bite upon the brie they bait the vermin with
Patience is virtuous, plenty of payless work I did
When my name wasn't worth a cent (Now)
Gotta be properly compensated for hard sweat
It's not that complicated a concept
My rap acumen grew sicker enough that
I'm stacking new ends up, call it affluenza
No sense being indebted to creditors
Be renting their umbrellas when some inclement weather comes
Cold game's getting dirtier, suckers purchasing exposure
That's only earning 'em hypothermia
Poor decisions have pricey repercussions
Ask me to kill it for free? Dead discussion
Man look

Just pay me, my labor it ain't free
Do me no favors, show me some paper
Just pay me, my labor it ain't free
Do me no favors, show me some paper

A disgruntled rap cat wearing his heart on his backpack
Jasper ain't gonna fall into that trap (Nah)
Too cool for that, new fools will splash into
Pools and vats filled with schools of catfishing piranhas
With spinning rods dangling deals and dollars
That would probably appeal to honestly any
Starving artist who could use income help
But through hoops they'll have you jumping like Jim Brunzell
And I'm just trying to make my music, make my moolah
Make my way home safe to rejuvenate
Consume my plate then resume my race
Not pursued by snakes (So look)
Want me to rap for you, it's gonna be transactional
As sand in the hourglass passes through
Mad cash accrues
Put it on your tab, yeah I'll have to do
So

Just pay me, my labor it ain't free
Do me no favors, show me some paper
Just pay me, my labor it ain't free
Do me no favors, show me some paper
Just pay me, my labor it ain't free
Do me no favors, show me some paper
Just pay me, my labor it ain't free
Do me no favors, show me some paper
