I been on my grind sometimes

Working hard to try to save a life sometimes

But life is still life sometimes

It ain’t easy cause I got a mic sometimes

I been putting in my time

Wonder if it’s really worth the grind sometimes

I’ve been given God some time

He told me I gotta take it back

I am just reflecting what it means to be in greatness

Just wanna be my best before I go and meet my maker

Some days feel like a failure others feeling like the greatest

Race not given to the swift and oh Lord just gotta make it

This world been kind of ice cold slight froze it seems

Daddy left when I was five won’t trade my babies for the cream

I got all I want, won’t trade legacy for a dream

If I ever gotta choose look at my goals chuck them things(look)

I been up, I been low, been in cold and I been exposed/

Know what it is when you’re feeling low, like I did my best but where can I go?

Beef with life fork in the road, abandonment brandished my goals

What can of man left me alone, but the Son of Man landed my soul

Now I know that I can I make it, I ain’t talking cash or famous

I ain’t talking bout’ no placements, a higher level of greatness

I’m pointing to the King, fade to black, wait for credits

Living in the in-between, fade to exit blessit

I been on my grind sometimes

Working hard to try to save a life sometimes

But life is still life sometimes

It ain’t easy cause I got a mic sometimes

I been putting in my time

Wonder if it’s really worth the grind sometimes

I’ve been given God some time

He told me I gotta take it back

I know the finest grapes are produced on the finest vines

And pressure and the time what it takes for the finest wines

It’s a shame how many fold when they comfort is on the line/

Give me Rachel faith spit death in the face like Columbine

I get the temptation I’m a man and I ain’t divine

Just want to be proud reviewing that tape when we eye to eye/

And that’s by grace, gonna get me to that place plus get my by/

It’s better I stay here no plans of me saying bye

Green pastures, where I lay here amazed God supplies

Supreme Master, same faith full time nine to five

Give me strength to be the man my children need in this life

Fight the fear that I’ll repeat and meet my father’s demise

Give me the peace to be the husband that Tia needs

And do it all by your grace knowing it isn’t me

If I do that for a lifetime and then succeed

And nobody remembers my name promise that’s good enough for me

Yes indeed

I been on my grind sometimes

Working hard to try to save a life sometimes

But life is still life sometimes

It ain’t easy cause I got a mic sometimes

I been putting in my time

Wonder if it’s really worth the grind sometimes

I’ve been given God some time

He told me I gotta take it back
