Here are the injuries that just cost Da Brat $6.4 MILLION — after she brutally bottled an Atlanta nightclub waitress in the face back in 2007 — the photos are intense … but they raise an interesting question.

If you don’t want to click, the pics show the bloodied face of former Atlanta Falcons cheerleader Shayla Stevens at the hospital immediately following Da Brat’s attack.

Da Brat and Stevens had reportedly gotten into an argument inside Studio 72 nightclub, and when the waitress turned around to get her manager — Da Brat smashed her in the face with a rum bottle.

Brat — real name Shawntae Harris — served 3 years in prison after pleading guilty to aggravated assault … and Thursday, a jury found the rapper liable for $6.4 million in damages to the victim.

There’s no doubt Stevens’ injuries are severe — but $6.4 million is a LOT of money … especially after Da Brat served a sizable prison sentence … so we gotta ask …

11:40 AM PT — Da Brat just called in to “TMZ Live,” and pretty much told Stevens to get in line … because she owes a LOT of people money … and $6.4 million isn’t exactly in her budget.
