Grinning
[Intro: Charlie Smarts]
Uh, first I was gone n***a, but now I'm on n***a
And funny thing it only took one song n***a, uh

[Chorus: Charlie Smarts]
What you hear is clear, how my music get around that's from ear to ear, it go from ear to ear, from ear to ear, got me smiling and me grinning say from ear to ear 'cos I was grinning (I be grinning)
Whoa, wait a minute the crew Kooley High know the sky is the limit, I be grinning (I be grinning n***a)
Same as the beginning, I ain't change up my pitching even in the 9th inning, I be grinning (I be grinning)
Can I find a witness, Saturday I was sinning, next day I repented, I be grinning (I be grinning)
When I smoke that spinach, on the purp no grimace by the time I finish, I be grinning (I be grinning)

[Verse 1: Charlie Smarts]
Uh, ride with us, (Ride) a couple of homies and fine bitches (I be grinning) uh
I mean fine women, she gimme five minutes and I give her nine inches, eh (grinning)
I work overtime, my your business play your cards right I might have the time to spend it n***a (I be grinning)
Thought of quitting, eh I thought of quitting when my mom had a sentence she was gone for a minute eh (grinning)
She told me how to be strong for a living and deal with the wrongs you committed, (I be grinning, I be grinning)
And it was so vivid, (wooh) I just try to use my pen to paint a picture (n***a grinning)
She was in that prison, (in a prison) so I'm using the bars as God given (n***a grinning)
And that's symbolism; take the punches, roll with 'em even when I wasn't winning I be grinning (I be grinning)
(Wooh)
(I be grinning n***a)

[Chorus: Charlie Smarts]
What you hear is clear, how my music get around that's from ear to ear, it go from ear to ear, from ear to ear, got me smiling and me grinning say from ear to ear 'cos I was grinning (I be grinning)
Whoa, wait a minute the crew Kooley High know the sky is the limit, I be grinning (I be grinning n***a)
Same as the beginning, I ain't change up my pitching even in the 9th inning, I be grinning (I be grinning)
Can I find a witness, Saturday I was sinning, next day I repented, I be grinning (I be grinning)
When I smoke that spinach, on the purp no grimace by the time I finish, I be grinning (I be grinning)
[Verse 2: Tab-One]
Uh, I swear it got my head spinning, ever since I started digging
Work with what I'm given, crack a joke he always kidding, got 'em grinning (I be grinning n***a)
Make music for a livin', do it for the feelin' I ain't never made a killin' but I'm chillin' (I be chillin') uh
You know the b'ness every sentence is a gymnast[?] how I flip it with the fitness, can you feel it (can you feel it n***a)
Used to rock it can I kick it, now I rock a show for tickets collectin' at the door to come 'n hear it (come 'n hear it)
Burn it down like America's spirit, every verse like a whip engineer it and stir it (wooh)
Into the ears of every listener, listening to the stereo staring up at the stars, thinkin' 'bout the reason we here and jus who we are (wooh)
Jon Taffer how I'm rescuing these bars (I be grinning) I'm old school like Beta and VCRs, and steady grinning' cos I'm winnin' with my squad - Kooley High

[Verse 3: Rapsody]

Rain, shine, or snow I'm alive, all I know I don't trust everybody that be grinning (I be grinning)
Some just want to see you fall, let 'em cheer from a distance never walk after they crawl, I be grinning (I be grinning n***a)
