[Verse]
Empty streets where my shadow falls
They don't whisper back
They don't hear my calls
Kindness is a coin no one wants to spend
And the mirror's a liar
No hand to lend
[Chorus]
No one but the grind
No one but the grind
When the world turns cold
It's all I can find
You took my heart
Tossed it aside
But I'll keep on
No one but the grind
[Verse 2]
She said I was sweet
Too sweet to taste
An ugly face in a world of haste
But when my hands turned dust into gold
She smiled
She stayed
Her heart felt sold
[Prechorus]
Love ain't love when it comes with a bill
You hate the man
But you love the thrill
[Chorus]
No one but the grind
No one but the grind
When the world turns cold
It's all I can find
You took my heart
Tossed it aside
But I'll keep on
No one but the grind
[Bridge]
Took me for granted
Every dime I bled
Said you loved me
But loved what I fed
Ugly
Kind
I wore those chains
But the grind stays loyal
It don't complain
