[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Started from the bottom, tread worn through my shoes,
Dreams in my pocket, every night I paid dues.
Clock ticks past midnight, grinding aināt a choice,
Calloused hands gripping futures, mute the noise.
Hustleās in my DNA, sweat stains the page,
Every ānoā fueled the fire, turned rage into wage.
Stumbled in the darkness, but the vision stayed clear,
Flames of doubt couldnāt touch the grind, no fear.
[Chorus]
This the grind, this the glory, every step in the story,
From the mud to the crown, yeah, we chasing that aura.
Hustle hard, never fold, b***d and tears in the trophy,
Success aināt a giftāitās a w*r we f***t slowly.
[Verse 2]
Roadblocks, detours, map torn at the seams,
Every scar got a lesson, every wound redeemed.
Critics chirping static, but the signalās my own,
Turned the pain into power, built a fortress from stone.
Empty pockets, full heart, hunger kept me alive,
Sacrificed the weekends, just to thrive at the climb.
Failures? Just rehearsals for the main stage,
Every loss wrote the blueprint, now Iām flipping the page.
[Chorus]
This the grind, this the glory, every step in the story,
From the mud to the crown, yeah, we chasing that aura.
Hustle hard, never fold, b***d and tears in the trophy,
Success aināt a giftāitās a w*r we f***t slowly.
[Verse 3]
Now the summitās close, but I keep my stance low,
Eyes on the peak, but my roots still anchor below.
Blessings in the struggle, every scarās a medal,
From the concrete to the clouds, broke the cycleās treadle.
Stay humble when the checks come, never lose the flame,
āCause the grind donāt retireāit just changes the game.
Legacyās the target, every stepās a testament,
Hustleās the anthem, success? Just a fragment.
[Bridge]
Yeah, the journeyās long, but the fireās never fading,
Heartbeats sync with the grind, no escaping.
Footprints in the snow, so the next ones can trace it,
Hustleās not a phaseāitās the life that we make it.
[Outro]
