What's grind? That's a motherfucking 10 hour shift. 
Off work tired as fuck I hit the gym n I lift 
Get home write a verse then I gotta record. 
Trynna stack the fuckin money til it don't even fold
No accordion Ben Franklin in the Honda Accord. 
Fuck that, cop a whip that you can't purchase in stores 
Gut the inside, pimp my ride, butterfly doors 
X to the Z bumping out the system by Bose 
That's the dream but I  grind for the mean time 
Work too hard what the fuck is free time 
Bitch trynna get it, said I think you need some "me time"
Bitch, I've been so busy I don't even fucking beat mine 
know you trynna FaceTime wit me on the waistline 
Bitch I'd rather run it, like I'm hoping off the baseline. 
I ain't fucking with these kids, no dateline 
Keep skipping class Imma call you out like Ben stein - BUELLER 

(bitch im tynna run it like hopin off the baseline)

What's grind? When you keep all the priorities straight 
Act too Real, cut a homie out if he fake 
It ain't nothing to cut that bitch off or a friend or even family. 
Bitch you better come correct if you gotta come around me 
I ain't playing no mo 
I ain't playing no mo 
Asking me to kick it? Imma ask you what for? 
'less you bout the paper, or you srs bout some rhymin. 
Get the Fuck up outta here I ain't wasting time freestylin
Every line off the top is like a quote from a prophet 
i see the bigger picture, for the small minds gotta crop it. 
Perspective is everything. 
Protective of what I bring. 
Hold it close but put it out, handshakes with a wedding ring 
They don't know what I've seen, they only know what I sing. 
Paint a picture with bars, blood canvased walls of the prescient 
Byproduct of the grind man I'm only feeling pain. 
Results are the verge they wanted bars I gave em Shane
