[Lyric] Dues (Feral the Earthworm)

[Intro]
Radio chatter

[Verse 1]
Been paying dues, feel confused how much more to pay
My mental's tortured and sure this results in shore decay[?]
This point I wish I had a porch but hey
Guess I can just open my sliding door on a gorgeous day
But even then sometimes you got the local meth head
That on occasion jumps in and then sits on your bed
And tries to hit the pipe like it's nothing
Fuck out my house
So yeah... sometimes I struggle with doubt

[Chorus]
All I do is pay dues
All I do is pay dues
All I do is pay dues
All I do is pay dues
All I do is pay dues
All I do is pay dues
[Verse 2]
One hundred times eleven, that's basically what I spent in beats
Then about another six fifty just to get this shit mixed, at least
Album cover is two hundred, plus the production the physicals
Music videos because Vanarchy topped with no promotion, it'll move
Precisely zero copies, resulting in total fiscal loss
So don't haggle when I ask for ten bucks because you just pissed me off
This van life to pay for this 100% independent
Every cent went back into it just as quick as you sent it
Damn

[Chorus]
All I do is pay dues
All I do is pay dues
All I do is pay dues
All I do is pay dues
All I do is pay dues
All I do is pay dues

[Verse 3]
Ain't seen my family in eight months, how much this post'll cost
Performed in like forty states I've been traveling so long I'm lost
By now I've probably logged nine hundred nights in the vehicle
Six projects by age twenty five I just don't see people
Biting three times their body weight
Have fat-ass wheels for several years
Working merch for better known rappers I'm separate from rest my peers
The devotion can't be questioned it's just a matter of time
Your tenacity, passion and talents are a laughable fraction of mine
[Chorus]
All I do is pay dues
All I do is pay dues
All I do is pay dues
All I do is pay dues
All I do is pay dues
All I do is pay dues
