[00:00.000] 作詞 : Clear, Givens, Tyson
[00:02.94]Yeah
[00:05.47]Send this one out to everybody, trying to make end ends meet
[00:10.96]Yeah
[00:11.76]I'm on the grind
[00:12.51]Still got my money on my mind
[00:14.36]And I, feel like I'm walking on the line
[00:17.07]When it, seems like I'm running out of time
[00:19.83]That's when I'm going on the grind
[00:21.78]Ay yo, I'm trying to make my dollars double
[00:23.94]I done found a place to fit in
[00:25.45]For ****** trying to get into this power struggle
[00:27.76]I work hard on the job like immigrants
[00:30.41]And always try to get my first half in advance
[00:33.06]It sounds strange but the rap game is not a game
[00:35.86]You could make a lot of money gain a lot of fame
[00:38.54]But don't get it twisted
[00:39.99]You could get addicted
[00:41.31]Buy a mansion in the Hamptons, and get evicted
[00:43.96]Now if you call me and I'm not around
[00:46.07]I'm probably putting my grind down
[00:47.97]Doing shows out of town
[00:49.40]I be the manager, road manager, and call handler
[00:52.00]Booking agent, choreographer and tour planner
[00:54.81]I be the V.P. of marketing and promotions
[00:57.21]Producer and arraigner, with a range of emotions
[01:00.21]And after it all, I still gotta perform
[01:02.44]At three o'clock in the morn', when half the fans are gone
[01:05.30]But it's fine
[01:06.30]Been on the grind since like '88 or '89
[01:09.15]The game is foul like a plate of swine
[01:11.08]Now is there anybody con like me?
[01:13.35]Is anybody out there on the grind like me?
[01:16.54]For everybody working nine to five
[01:18.64]For everybody trying to rise with they eyes on the prize
[01:21.80]I'm with 'cha, we all going through it
[01:24.15]But yo, deep down inside I know we still gon' do it
[01:27.03]Oh
[01:27.69]I'm on the grind
[01:28.48]Still got my money on my mind
[01:30.49]And I, feel like I'm walking on the line
[01:33.18]And it, seems like I'm running out of time
[01:35.82]That's why I'm always on the grind
[01:38.32]Yeah, I'm on the grind
[01:39.36]Still got my money on my mind
[01:41.26]And I, feel like I'm walking on the line
[01:43.96]When it, seems like I'm running out of time
[01:46.72]That's when I'm going on the grind
[01:48.48]Yeah
[01:48.63]I really feel I'm blessed 'cause I was born with a talent to rhyme
[01:51.81]But the stress got me this close to quitting sometimes
[01:54.41]On the crowded A train every morning
[01:56.51]I can't wait for the day
[01:57.78]My hustle game don't got to start this way
[01:59.83]****** think it's all good when they see me and hear my CD
[02:03.17]And think I'm jumping in the 745 with TVs
[02:06.06]They don't know I miss tours and shows
[02:07.96]To go to work and pay bills and keep dough on my clothes
[02:10.66]In the shadow of a legend so
[02:12.45]They expect me to spit and sound like him
[02:15.04]But y'all need to let it go
[02:16.75]Everyday I face the crossroad of rap or drugs
[02:19.44]Album cuts and singles and crack heads and clappin' thugs
[02:22.15]When I'm broke my moms won't even give me a hug
[02:24.79]But on payday I'm her baby then she call it love
[02:27.53]I keep making my moves 'cause one day I'm a prove
[02:30.43]I got what it take and I will not lose
[02:32.66]Yeah
[02:33.23]I'm on the grind
[02:34.33]Still got my money on my mind
[02:36.22]And I, feel like I'm walking on the line
[02:38.98]When it, seems like I'm running out of time
[02:41.73]That's when I'm going on the grind
[02:44.61]I'm on the grind
[02:45.52]Still got my money on my mind
[02:47.21]And I, feel like I'm walking on the line
[02:49.81]And it, seems like I'm running out of time
[02:52.57]That's why I'm always on the grind
[02:54.36]("I had to hustle hard, never give up" scratched to end)
