[Intro: Lil Keke]
713 the truth
Okay, that's right
We stuck out here in the streets, n***a
Still searchin' for a piece of mind
The hustle is all we got
I'ma grind to the end, n***a
I take this shit to the limit
Everything from my heart, n***a (Hey, hey)
[Verse 1: Lil' Keke]
They say I'm still one the best there is
Been on the hustle gettin' paid, for some multiple years
Ask God every night to remove my fears
I done lost a whole lot, but had to lose them tears to switch gears
A lot of n***as, follow my lеad
My team strong fuck failin' 'cause we must succeed, a rarе breed
Crazy, when I smoke that weed
I guess these constant bad habits put my mind at ease, I gotta breathe
The streets get a lotta my time
Got me prayin' real hard for a piece of my mind
Yeah, I'm still pressin' forward, fuck laggin' behind
'Bout my business everyday, while these n***as is cryin' and I ain't lyin'
Mash 'cause I must get mine
When your days get dark, you know it's tougher to shine
Slow it down, get your head right, then unwind
Never gave up, I stayed on the grind, my n***a, it's my time
[Chorus: Lil' Keke & Propain]
I'm still one of the best of my kind
Out here workin' and I'm searchin' for a piece of my mind
Lord knows I'm out here hustlin' for the rest of my time
Crawlin' back and still lookin' for the front of the line, I'm on the grind
Hey, this shit a grind (Grind), this shit a grind (Grind)
This shit a grind, I can't stand wastin' time
So I'm gettin' mine (I got it, mine), I'm gettin' mine (Mine)
I'm gettin' mine, puttin' it all on the line (I got these n***as)
[Verse 2: Propain]
Yeah, was bred to get it in the hardest times (Hardest times)
Two options where I'm from, you either starve or grind (Uh)
Southside n***a (Yeah), we was taught to shine
Mind of a G, bitch, hustler in this heart of mine
I'm dyin', what you gon' do when that court decline
And your gal bitchin' in your ear, because your daughter cryin'? (Yuh)
Grind, mane, a helpin' hand is hard to find
You gotta hit these streets, become a beast (Uh), morphin' time
Diamonds 'round my neck (Neck), same thang around my wrist
Just a year ago, these n***as claimed I wouldn't amount to shit (What up?)
Now me and my n***as hoppin' off of planes, countin' chips
I went from gettin' hate to treated like a king around this bitch (H-Town)
I got my foot on they neck, and I won't let go (Nah)
And still pimpin' pens, 'til I'm platinum in the ghetto (What up, Ke'?)
Yeah, I ain't stuntin', I ain't cappin'
I'm just motivatin' these real n***as, showin' 'em it could happen, I grind
[Chorus: Lil' Keke & M.U.G.]
I'm still one of the best of my kind
Out here workin' and I'm searchin' for a piece of my mind
Lord knows I'm out here hustlin' for the rest of my time
Crawlin' back and still lookin' for the front of the line, I'm on the grind
Hey, this shit a grind (Grind, yeah), this shit a grind (Grind)
This shit a grind, I can't stand wastin' time (I'm on my grind, big homie)
So I'm gettin' mine (Mine), I'm gettin' mine (Mine, it's M.U.G.)
I'm gettin' mine, puttin' it all on the line
[Verse 3: M.U.G.]
I swear I'm on the grind on that all night shit (On that all night shit)
Anything gotta be better than them all white bricks (Right)
Feds lurkin' through the neighborhood, gotta watch how I talk on the phone (Yeah)
So much goin' through my mind, can't express it on one song (Nah)
I'm in the field as we speak, on my gorilla shit (On my gorilla shit)
Seen myself on TV, I couldn't picture this (Yeah)
Do it for the smell of success, that's fresh air (What?)
You thinkin' bout tomorrow, I'm stackin' for next year (Get it)
Kids need food, daddy stay on a mission (Right)
So fuck gettin' a plate, I'm buildin' my own kitchen (N***a)
Hungry all about my scratch, palms itchin'
Haters sick thinkin' I won't explode, this bomb's tickin' (I'm grindin')
[Chorus: Lil' Keke]
I'm still one of the best of my kind
Out here workin' and I'm searchin' for a piece of my mind
Lord knows I'm out here hustlin' for the rest of my time
Crawlin' back and still lookin' for the front of the line, I'm on the grind
Hey, this shit a grind (Grind), this shit a grind (Grind)
This shit a grind, I can't stand wastin' time
So I'm gettin' mine (Mine), I'm gettin' mine (Mine)
I'm gettin' mine, puttin' it all on the line
