(Verse 1)
I never had it easy // even though I lose control [of myself]
Never stopped running // tryna chase my goals
Had to find my way // I got no one else to hold
Grew up from the ghetto // where the nights were cold
Dreams of better days // kept me pushing through
Nobody block my view // grinding so hard tryna make it new
Man, that’s how we move //
I be fightin' hard // tryna get off the trenches
I be goin' hard // tryna get all these riches
Got no time for lies // mans be on some fake shi!!
I pull up with a smile // mama said I'm destined [eish, get it]
Standing on business // it's the paper that I'm chasing [everyday]
Everyday of my life // I be counting my blessings
I believing in myself // one day I'm gonna make it
God knows I never try to fake it //
[Breath & slight pause]
(Chorus)
I ain't tryna rest // all I need is work, work, work // 24/7
Hustle all my life // nobody is gonna help // so I'm doing it myself // 24/7
Going through some pressure // got my eyes on the treasure // pain got me thinking // 24/7
Pain got me thinking // 24/7 // [hold last note]
(Verse 2)
Started from the bottom // had to climb through the fire
Pressure made a diamond // now I’m reaching higher
Every setback just fueled my desire //
I can’t fold now // I was built to inspire
Long nights praying // hoping God hear my pain
Sunrise comes // I get back in the game
Ain’t no shortcuts // I done walked through the rain
Scars on my heart // but they made me sustain
I’m focused on the grind // can’t be stuck in the past
Dreams on my mind // I’m determined to last
One step at a time // I’m moving too fast
Hustle every moment // I’ma get it at last
(Bridge)
Even when the nights get cold // I keep my fire alive
Every tear I shed // only makes me survive
Faith in my grind // I know I’ll arrive
One day I’ll look back // and see I thrived
(Chorus)
I ain't tryna rest // all I need is work, work, work // 24/7
Hustle all my life // nobody is gonna help // so I'm doing it myself // 24/7
Going through some pressure // got my eyes on the treasure // pain got me thinking // 24/7
Pain got me thinking // 24/7 // [hold last note]
