Why the grind take so long? They say if you hold on, it can't go wrong Don't quit Long winded, I'm gon' get it Don't sprint Be long winded, you gon' get it The grind takes so long But if you hold on, it can't go wrong Don't quit Long winded, I'm gon' get it Don't sprint Be long winded, you gon' get it Never let your head hang down That's where your thoughts manifest and you wear your crown Move low-key, some things you can't announce Everybody won't be happy when you make it out Think about your friends and fam who ain't around Some dead some went fed, make them proud Say it loud, I'm enough I'ma up the price Know your worth, you get up and fight throw another right I work too damn hard to go hungry another night How you only live once but they're giving double life? What a life we live, I've seen kids on their own Made me appreciate that I got a momma at home I'm somewhere honing my craft, minding my own Hit the mic and put on, put on designer cologne No regrets, I broke a sweat I been in my zone You don't fail until you give up, who giving up their throne? Why the grind take so long? They say if you hold on, it can't go wrong Don't quit Long winded, I'm gon' get it Don't sprint Be long winded, you gon' get it The grind takes so long But if you hold on, it can't go wrong Don't quit Long winded, I'm gon' get it Don't sprint Be long winded, you gon' get it
