My Grind

[Intro] Uh, yeah And then my Momma said (yo) And all my fans said He did it again (na na na) And then my Momma said [Hook] Every time I look at you, I'm prouder I know ain't nobody goin' be like you Every time I look at you, I'm prouder I know ain't nobody goin' be like you I stay up on my grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, grind I stay up on my grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, grind [Verse 1] It's time to claim the throne They tell me don't go there The hottest motherfucker don shot up out of nowhere And he's mighty arrogant Does he have experience? Check your mirror I'll bet your head bobbing when you be hearing this The year was 1988, Mom and Dad divorced but wait What we goin' do about the kids? She said we have eight He said, "I don't give a fuck about 'em Now get the fuck up out of here" It took about a year, but we were out of there A one way ticket to the ghetto She taught us all a lesson: count your blessings and struggle before you settle Now success is pulling in, Mama Take your seat in Heaven Reminisce on the Good Times damn, Florida Evans [Hook] [Verse 2] My grind's been all crazy since I lost my first lady Said farewell to welfare when I had my first baby Can't spit 16 about drugs, I never dealt 'em Every cop on the block had clubs, make sure you felt 'em We blackjacks of seeing 21, was very seldom I got charged, put behind bars, would booze cars and sell them And when I'm back on the streets again, I'mma bring the heat again I don't even want to see the pent, music is my medicine No medicine, a hard knock life, until you let us in No cartoons, no longer the underdog so I better win Consider me a veteran, you can hear it in my bars Fuck a ball of gas, I'm a star [Hook] [Verse 3] I'd like to dedicate this verse to all my fans around the world That's raised one fist, unite your hands around the world If success is on your mind and you know you're on your grind Then you halfway there Don't you quit before your time comes I know what it's like to have nothing And turn it into something When life is so hard, you can't take it no more That's when you gotta really want it So just hang in there [Hook]
