[Intro] (mm) Every night I balance the books... (mm) every night, one line that won't. [Verse] Coffee, contracts, a whole city to run — every cost in its column, every column adds up. Then your name in the margin, no price I can find, and the whole ledger tilts, and I'm out of my mind. [Pre-Chorus] I run the math twice. I run it all night. One number won't settle, and it won't tell me why. [Hook] I can't account for you. (account for you) No line, no sum, no rule. I keep the receipt of every word you said — can't spend it, can't lose it, it just lives in my head. Can't account, can't account... for you. [Verse 2] I can price out a tour, put a worth on a name, stamp a number on everything I built for this fame. But I ran you through every model I know — and you don't depreciate. You just grow. [Pre-Chorus] So I read it back soft, at the quiet hours, the one line I keep, and it still draws blood. [Hook] I can't account for you. (account for you) No line, no sum, no rule. I keep the receipt of every word you said — can't spend it, can't lose it, it just lives in my head. Can't account, can't account... for you. [Rap] Debit what I gave you, credit what you took, clean books my whole life and you cooked my books. Audited the chest, found a hole in the sum where a quiet little number came undone. Every asset I move, every deal that I close — none of it covers the one thing I chose. [Bridge] What I owe you won't fit on a page. No account, no exchange. Keep the receipt, keep it near — it's the truest thing in the year. [Hook – final, stacked] I can't account for you. (account for you) No line, no sum, no rule. I keep the receipt of every word you said — can't spend it, can't lose it, it just lives in my head. [Outro] Every night I balance the books. Every night, the one line that won't. Your name in the margin, no price I can find — keep the receipt. Keep the receipt.
