Lyrics

[Verse 1]
They charged me for the view
The toast came cut in two
Little gold on my plate
Big bill at the end, who knew?
My mama said, "Boy, stay sharp"
Don't confuse shine with proof
I sip that bitter truth
While they sell you sweet on cue

[Pre-Chorus]
I seen folks pose and flex
Like rent don't knock next
One for the feed, one for the soul
I want the part that's real
Servers move like chess
Everybody wants excess
But the heart don't eat that gloss
When the bank text hits, it feel

[Chorus]
Expensive brunch, expensive brunch
Talk big, but I'm counting up
Expensive brunch, expensive brunch
Who got peace when the check comes up?
Expensive brunch, expensive brunch
I want more than a pretty cup
Expensive brunch, expensive brunch
Feed the mind, don't just fill me up

[Verse 2]
Man, we came for the talk
Not the pearl-handled fork
Not the fake lil' smile
While the bill stretch long as a court
Auntie laughed at the booth
Said, "They selling brunch like art"
But the truth in the room
Was a hunger money can't start

[Pre-Chorus]
I seen folks pose and flex
Like rent don't knock next
One for the feed, one for the soul
I want the part that's real
Servers move like chess
Everybody wants excess
But the heart don't eat that gloss
When the bank text hits, it feel

[Chorus]
Expensive brunch, expensive brunch
Talk big, but I'm counting up
Expensive brunch, expensive brunch
Who got peace when the check comes up?
Expensive brunch, expensive brunch
I want more than a pretty cup
Expensive brunch, expensive brunch
Feed the mind, don't just fill me up

[Bridge]
If the table talk is empty
Then the whole spread taste thin
I'd rather split one honest plate
Than starve on paper wins
Let the brass speak low
Let the old school grin
We came for a little light
And a reason to begin

[Chorus]
Expensive brunch, expensive brunch
Talk big, but I'm counting up
Expensive brunch, expensive brunch
Who got peace when the check comes up?
Expensive brunch, expensive brunch
I want more than a pretty cup
Expensive brunch, expensive brunch
Feed the mind, don't just fill me up
