Khrysis - The Grind lyrics

[Verse] In this music industry, I grind for a livin' I'm drivin' to get back the time that was givin' I don't sit around all night and day dream of rappin' I'd rather be hands on and make things happen Talkin' to these companies and dealin' with promoters Screamin' on everybody that I feel that ain't gettin' over Now every other dude wanna talk and hold a conversation About me spittin' on his mixtape or compilation Look, I'mma say this, I don't care if it hurts A n***a need to realize this ain't charity work I'm dead serious with this, n***a Cesar Commanche Will f** around and choke a promoter until he can't breathe I got a family to feed, the rent's overdue And people overuse the key word "promotional" When every check and every show is a thin amount Every dollar, every dime, every penny count
