[Intro]
Alarm on five
Eyes still red
But the grind stay pretty
Inside my head (yeah)
[Verse 1]
Got a crush on the clock, I chase time
Phone full of plays, I don't chase shine
Bag on my mind when I FaceTime
She say, "You work too much" — I say, "I'm fine"
Love letters on receipts from the corner store
Every dollar that I fold mean a little more
Every scar on my hand from the heavy doors
Look like vows that I wrote to the hustle core
I ain't waiting on a wish, I'm awake for it
Turn a setback to a shape, then I skate with it
Whole city on my back, I got faith in it
Put the pain in the plan, then I pray with it (uh)
[Chorus]
I'm in love with the hustle, that's my baby (that's my baby)
Every loss, every win, drive me crazy (drive me crazy)
I don't run from the rain, it raised me
Every long night talkin' 'bout "Pay me" (talkin' 'bout "Pay me")
I'm in love with the hustle, that's my baby
Whole heart in the grind, it never phase me
If the world say "stop," it can't make me
'Cause the hustle the only one that saved me (saved me)
[Verse 2]
First date with the grind in a break room
Clocked out, wrote dreams on a stray spoon
Shared meals with the team in a gray June
Turned doubt into fuel, now we break rules
Wake up sore, but my soul feel athletic
Every stumble that I took made me more magnetic
Lookin' back on the blocks that I ran through hectic
I just smile, 'cause the struggle made the route poetic
I been broke, but I never been broken
Every closed door had a side cracked open
I was outside when the pride got stolen
Now my name on the side of the ride I'm rollin' (skrrt)
[Chorus]
I'm in love with the hustle, that's my baby (that's my baby)
Every loss, every win, drive me crazy (drive me crazy)
I don't run from the rain, it raised me
Every long night talkin' 'bout "Pay me" (hey!)
I'm in love with the hustle, that's my baby
Whole heart in the grind, it never phase me
If the world say "stop," it can't make me
'Cause the hustle the only one that saved me (saved me)
[Bridge]
Who else kept me warm in the cold?
Who else turned the pressure into gold?
Who else never left when I was low?
Only hustle, only hustle that I know (yeah)
[Chorus]
I'm in love with the hustle, that's my baby (that's my baby)
Every loss, every win, drive me crazy
I don't run from the rain, it raised me
Every long night talkin' 'bout "Pay me"
I'm in love with the hustle, that's my baby
Whole heart in the grind, it never phase me
If the world say "stop," it can't make me
'Cause the hustle the only one that saved me
