chase is tak

Intro

(uh) Yeah, yeah, hey

Mmm, mmm, ah-ah

Verse

I left a light on for you, Chase, in case you came back home

Phone on do not disturb but your name keeps cutting through the tone

You got that restless grin like you’re running out of time

Pockets full of paper promises, pockets full of lines

You chase the sunrise, chase the rent, chase the stage, chase the pain

I watch you play the gamble while the dice fall down again

You whisper bigger plans like they're postcards in your coat

I cash these little letters just to tell you I still float

Pre-chorus

And I don’t need permission to check in, I just do

If the road is wide and lonely, I’ll ride it with you

If your ledger’s heavy, let me carry half the load

If the chase is blinding, I’ll light the road

Chorus

This check on Chase, yeah, I’m checkin’ on Chase (oh)

This check on Chase, yeah, I keep a steady pace (yeah)

I send a message, watch the read, watch the face (watch it)

This check on Chase, this check on Chase

This check on Chase, yeah, I’m checkin’ on Chase (uh-huh)

This check on Chase, when the world won’t give you space (give you space)

I’ll be the line in the margin, your steady base

This check on Chase, this check on Chase

Verse

You talk in currency — dreams that cost a little more

You trade in late-night promises on somebody else’s floor

I see the ledger trembling where your courage used to sit

You sign your name like thunder, then you hide when thunder hits

You’ve been crowdfunding courage with a flicker and a grin

But courage ain’t a hashtag and losses can sink in

So when your pockets fold, and the crowd begins to fade

I’ll open up this letter, say: you still got me, babe

Pre-chorus

No receipts needed for the good that I can give

No invoices for mercy, no subscription to forgive

If your stride goes quiet, I’ll clap until you rise

If the chase goes silent, I’ll shout you back to life

Chorus

This check on Chase, yeah, I’m checkin’ on Chase (oh)

This check on Chase, yeah, I keep a steady pace (yeah)

I send a message, watch the read, watch the face (watch it)

This check on Chase, this check on Chase

This check on Chase, yeah, I’m checkin’ on Chase (uh-huh)

This check on Chase, when the world won’t give you space (give you space)

I’ll be the line in the margin, your steady base

This check on Chase, this check on Chase

Bridge

(na-na-na) Don’t fold, don’t fold, don’t fold away (don’t go)

(na-na-na) I’m right here, I’m right here, I’m right here today (right here)

Count the wins, count the scars, count the miles that made

I’ll sign my name across the page, I’ll cash this check on Chase (yeah, yeah)

Chorus

This check on Chase, yeah, I’m checkin’ on Chase (oh)

This check on Chase, yeah, I keep a steady pace (steady)

I send a message, watch the read, watch the face (watch it)

This check on Chase, this check on Chase

This check on Chase, yeah, I’m checkin’ on Chase (uh-h
