I lace up, sun ain’t even up yet,
Cold sweat, dreams fueled by the mindset,
Of legends before me, grindin’ till they shine,
Now it’s my time, I’m pushin’ past the line.
Drills on repeat, sore but I stay fly,
Rain or shine, I’m out here, do or die,
Every rep, every lap, it’s a step ahead,
No excuses, just bruises and goals in my head.
I ain’t playin’ for the fame or the likes on the ‘Gram,
I play for the days I had nothin’ but a plan,
From the backyard court to the bright-lit stage,
I turned hunger and hustle into center-page.
(Hook)
No days off, every minute I’m grindin’
Blood, sweat, and tears—no silver, just diamond
Fall down seven, I get up eight
Champions are made when it’s built on faith
No days off, I was born to compete
Workin’ while they sleep, trainin’ in the heat
Pain in my chest, still I never retreat
Cuz the top feels better when you’ve earned that seat
(Verse 2)
Late nights, early mornings, my clock don’t stop,
While they scroll, I’m runnin’ laps, pushin’ past the top,
I study film like I’m readin’ the playbook of life,
Discipline my armor, ambition my knife.
I sweat in silence, let my wins make noise,
Built like the greats, I don’t fold, I poise,
Every “no” they told me was fuel for the fire,
Now I train like my dreams got a hitman for hire.
Ice baths, setbacks, coaches that scream,
But I stay locked in, tunnel vision on the dream,
I ain’t got time for rest when there’s more to achieve,
You gotta work like the title ain’t guaranteed.
(Hook)
No days off, every minute I’m grindin’
Blood, sweat, and tears—no silver, just diamond
Fall down seven, I get up eight
Champions are made when it’s built on faith
No days off, I was born to compete
Workin’ while they sleep, trainin’ in the heat
Pain in my chest, still I never retreat
Cuz the top feels better when you’ve earned that seat
(Bridge)
When the lights cut out and the crowd fades low,
Will you stand tall or fold when it’s time to go?
All the hours, all the pain, all the sacrifice,
That’s the cost of greatness—you don’t pay it twice.
(Outro)
So I grind in the dark so I shine in the light,
I ain’t chasin’ perfect, just fightin’ for right,
Every drop of sweat is a brick in the wall,
Of a legacy built, where the hardest stand tall.
