Praverb the Wyse - I Grind lyrics

I'm wiser today, still trying to find me a way I love rap but it don't provide retirement pay That's no benefits, it's so interesting That's why I scribe it this way Speech lacking, P came with deep rapping I work 10 to 6 messing with the my sleep pattern No time to rhyme/ I sleep wake up Then I'm back on the grind, body aching I wish rap was my occupation I would add 40 hours plus vacation That's only a dream, I'm open to things I have to work hard daily to own a few things Like a couch or a fridge, bank account full of link I struggle day to day, with no house or no kids No wife, no picket fence, no ice Spending weekends inside, with no life [Chorus] I grind you grind Man yo I'm trying to make cash I wonder will it last I grind you grind It's like I'm down on my last cent And I gotta pay rent I grind you grind Man yo I'm trying to go to sleep Within this 40 hour work week I grind you grind Sometimes I wanna call it quits Probably call in sick I can't call in sick, I gotta ball for chips I gotta work, I don't care about the cars or chicks The fame, the cash, I won't be Damon Dash I'll be Praverb, so I'll let the labels pa** Not worried about getting signed, I'll just be wasting time Forget a record deal I'm back on the grind I write every now and then A personal track, or punchlines clowning friends (think about it) [Trinidad] Think about the bills pile up, outta luck Just a drone in this world with no time to add it up We fall apart like Attica, domino effect I just want to sit back and cash a check Much respect to the underground movement We useless, I'm changing up syllabi's and students Keep your head held high and we gone climb Billboards number one in due time I'm just preaching to the congregation, stop the hating We changing up society with Satan The last temptation, fall victim to generation x Infatuated s** Got dukes throwing up a set, that don't rep But they paid dues everytime they marked for d**h One step for mankind A step back cause we all know we running out of time [Chorus]
