[Intro] Two months late, lights low Phone muted, don’t move One eye pressed against the glass Whole damn hallway breathing back Open the door. F@k. [Verse 1] First month came, had the money, told myself I had a week Spent it piece by piece on dumb-a$$ sh!t I didn’t need Said I’d fix it with the next check, let tomorrow take the blame Then tomorrow turned to Friday and that Friday did the same Second month hit harder, bank account already flat Phone kept buzzing with her number, I just muted that Said I’d call her in the morning, morning came and disappeared Now every knock outside sounds louder than my fear Curtains closed, chain tight, TV bleeding on the wall Big bald bastard built like brick, scared to breathe at all Sweat down my temple, cheek pressed hard against the glass There she stands in that old robe with that bat across her back Small old woman, cold dead stare, planted in the hall Three hundred pounds of tough-guy sh!t feeling two feet tall I KNOW YOU’RE IN THERE! [Hook] KNOCK KNOCK WHO AT THE DOOR? Two months late, she came for more KNOCK KNOCK WOOD ON WOOD Debt don’t give a f@k if reasons sound good KNOCK KNOCK DON’T MAKE A SOUND Big man sweating while the bat comes down KNOCK KNOCK NOWHERE TO GO She knows I’m here She already knows BAM. BAM. [Verse 2] Checking every pocket, every drawer, every coat Loose change under cushions, old receipts and nothing close Twenty by the router, thirty hidden by the stove Forty folded in a sock and that is all I f@king know Rent sixteen hundred, I ain’t even halfway there Doing math with shaking fingers while she waits outside Could call my brother, owe him too, could climb out through the frame Fourth floor says f@k that sh!t, I need another game Blame the bank Blame the check Blame the date Blame the app Blame anything but me for being late with all this crap But every lie is tired now Every story stretched too thin I didn’t lose the f@king rent I spent it That’s the sin You had two months. I know. TWO. MONTHS. I KNOW! THEN OPEN THE F@KING DOOR! [Bridge] She stopped knocking. Why she stop? I can see your eye. ...f@k me. [Verse 3] Heartbeat match the hats, every triplet in my chest Every warning ignored came collecting with the rest She ain’t crazy, that’s the problem, every paper got a date Every knock got documentation, every scrape confirms my fate She told me, “If you’re struggling, just speak” I nodded like a grown-a$$ man, then vanished for a week Turned embarrassment to silence, turned the silence to a wall Now one peephole holds her stare and I can feel it through it all One. Two. Three. One for the first lie Two for the delay Three for every “next week” I threw her f@king way LOOK AT ME! I AM! NO. LOOK. AT. ME! You see this door? Yeah. You see this bat? Yeah. You see me? Yeah. Good. Then stop hiding. [Hook] KNOCK KNOCK WHO AT THE DOOR? Bad choices coming back for more KNOCK KNOCK WOOD ON WOOD Debt don’t give a f@k if reasons sound good KNOCK KNOCK TWO MONTHS DEEP Debt don’t forget and debt don’t sleep KNOCK KNOCK NOWHERE TO GO She knows I’m here She already knows [Final Verse] Hand on the first lock, metal shaking in my grip Second lock slides slowly, chain trembling bit by bit Every click sounds louder than the bass in the room Her hallway breathing sounds like footsteps toward my doom Open it. That calm is worse than screaming, means the screaming part is done Means she counted every promise, every message Means the bullsh!t lost its oxygen, the hiding hit the wall And the biggest motherf@ker in the building feels real small [Final Hook] KNOCK KNOCK NO MORE HIDE Debt in the hall and shame inside KNOCK KNOCK WOOD ON WOOD She said “Pay what you owe” I understood KNOCK KNOCK TWO MONTHS GONE Every excuse dragged on too long Open it.
