[Verse 1: Tasman Keith]
Just can't tell it all
Just can't tell it all
Yeah
[Verse 1: Tasman Keith]
Me don't talk to you nice
I won't do advice
I don't shake your hand, no
That shit to polite
Her wet on my stage
I blame it on the hype, uh
Forty-five minute
All I need to take your life, psych
I don't cuff (Ayy)
They sit down when my name call
Lil power-puff (That's mine!)
Sugar, spice I like 'em tall
Like half an hour up
See the envy in your talk
I can't fuck with a beaten down mental
What you thought? (Ayy)
[Interlude: Tasman Keith, [?]]
We need—we need a saviour, we need someone who's going to come down to this Earth (The king, the king, the king, the king)
Oh, yeah
It sounds so soulful, don't you agree? (And—and just do something for us)
[Chorus: Tasman Keith]
My words made a cheque, my words made a cheque
My mama finding peace, I curved on my ex
My words made a cheque, my words made a cheque
I just meditate, close my eyes and I'm the best (Holy shit, it's hard)
[Verse 2: Tasman Keith]
I wake in my sleep (Sleep)
See nothing changed from dream (Dream)
See vision on my face (Huh)
Like it's Gucci ice cream (Uhuh)
I lean, I lean
I rock with then I lean, uh
She just sent a pic
To my new device screen
I told her "Watch 'em ego trip"
I bust their ego lip
I pull up in that new old
"Don't complain" fit, don't know
Who they came with
But they ain't game fit
I hit em with the 1, 2, 3
Yup, Kane grip (You know)
[Verse 3: Genesis Owusu]
I mean, I mean
I show up just to leave
My shoulder's not to lean
I put, put on your sixteens
You don't rub up next to me
Without an invoice, price and fee
I can smell your jeopardy
A.O.T.Y, who's jelly, please?
I can't tolerate him
My slaughter ratings don't moderate
My conglomerate is the dominate
I can't follow, wait
I done torn away and I tear the wave up
ARIA eight noms isn't enough
Twenty-three sold out off of my cuff
You callin' my phone, I'm callin' your bluff
[Outro: Genesis Owusu]
You put your name next to mine
The audacity
Turn down your release
You disturb my sleep
I don't like you niggas
I just tolerate ye
I don't like you niggas
I just tolerate ye
CHEQUE was written by Genesis Owusu & Tasman Keith.
CHEQUE was produced by Kwame (AUS).
Tasman Keith released CHEQUE on Wed Apr 06 2022.
“CHEQUE” is the continuation of the character introduced in “5FT FREESTYLE” split into two parts, the abrasive ego and then the controlled version of that ego. Lyrically it’s just having something to say over some crazy production. I called Genesis and told him I had a joint for him to talk his shit...
Tasman specifically told me to flex. Talk that talk. The weirdo shit is cool but it’s time to rap.

If “SHARKS” is a place where mentally I’m gone, the first thing that comes when that’s not fully intact is ego, right? So “CHEQUE” is the ego that comes after. I rang Genesis and was like, ‘I have a record for you to talk your shit on,’ ‘cause I knew he just came off the back of an incredible run. A...
