Catch me with my head down workin' This ain't coming out until it's perfect Don't propose a deal unless it's worth it I'm supposed to kill it then we hearse it Write, produce, perform it then rehearse it Came for my flowers I will not return them Never underestimate the vision Ten years in it how could I forget it I gotta motto, you know what it is Always putting all money in How you wanna eat when you won't take hits Gettin' the bag involves so many risks Came from a city where nothing much was different Me and my team we were something to remember Back in them days I would drop in December Get out my way imma drop in the winter No one ever taught me how to grind Grind Leave it up to someone else That would be a crime Crime Comin' for my paper it's my time Time Me I'm making my way up Coming for what's mine Keep it moving 'Nother day ends Shake it off and we'll try that again yeah Never wanna sit and wine, no Don't let no one waste your time Tunnel vision Has it's place but Don't get lost in your mind on the way, no I won't even entertain no Homies sitting and complaining Cos you know you gotta shine Go 'head shine your light Only one got one life, yeah Baby go put in the time Open up your mind Energy aligned. Yeah. No one ever taught me how to grind Grind Leave it up to someone else That would be a crime Crime Coming for my paper it's my time Time Me I'm making my way up Coming for what's mine So if you don't respect the grind I'm asking you to stay in line Don't need anybody else that's gonna waste my time Don't know if you understand this shit takes sacrifice You didn't ask for my advice But I ain't gotta say it twice oh
