“Your Ego Is Writing Checks Your Body Can’t Cash” is a demo from the original Rise Or Die Trying sessions. It was remastered and featured on the compilation Some of You Will Like This, Some of You Won’t.
The song title is a reference form the 1986 film Top Gun.
I got up and made my way to the door
And I dropped my conscience on the way out
I turned and I looked back down on the floor
But my conscience wasn't there anymore
So then I got to thinking...
Was it there in the first place?
Can you read it on my face?
Cause I just don't care anymore
And I just don't give a damn anymore
Why just take tonight?
Can we try to keep on riding through these?
To light our way through the night
Just to see what we find
Told everyone I would try to get by
But I felt like I was wasting my time
I found my way this time
So why should I try
To stay grounded when my head's in the sky
Then I got to thinking...
Will they miss me when i'm gone?
Will they leave the porch light on?
If I can't find home anymore
Or will I not have a home anymore?
Why just take tonight?
Can we try to keep on riding through these?
To light our way through the night
Just to see what we find
When we go
We'll just live our lives by rocky roads
And our eyes got to second place brides?
Cause I'm feeling lucky tonight?
And I'll just stick stick stick to the things I know
If you'll just quit quit quit quit buggin' me about it baby
And you'll tell me that i'm missing out
Cause I don't give a damn anymore
