For A Minute

A lot of these guys have lost it
I don't have faith in them, I guess you can call me an agnostic
But I swear this gas in the air is toxic
If grime was a story, surely I am the new gen plot twist
They all wanna turn a blind eye, will bun the co-signs
I've got this, watch this
I've clocked the game right now
Get your nose up everyone's arse that you can
That seems like the master plan
You know what? I've got to much heart for that
They say nothing before it's time
But I'm ahead of mine so what's the deal right there?
If you can't sleep, don't look in my eyes
'Cause you'll see a real nightmare

'Cause I've been on my grind for a minute
I've been on my grind from day
Always putting time with the lyrics
Always put pen to the page
That's me for the rest of my days
Yeah, I've got stress on my brain
You don't, that's the reason I vent this rage
That's the reason I'm set in my ways
That's the reason I'm setting the pace
I've been on my grind for a minute
Yeah, I've been on my grind for a minute
I've been spitting on the mic for a minute
I've been spitting on the mic for a minute
I've been putting in the time for a minute
I've been putting in the time for a minute
I've been on my grind for a minute
Yeah, I've been on my grind for a minute

I gotta keep on patterning
Keep on barring and keep on battling
Keep on guard, I can't be panicking
I can't stand still like a mannequin
I've got my eyes on the field
'Cause I know the snakes in the grass keep rattling
Right now the door is locked
That's why I gotta make sure that I shatter it
I ain't having it, never have, never will
Got a heart that's packed with steel
I've gotta prove I'm a king
I've had enough of being one of them ants on the hill
They say "Tommy, kick back and chill"
How can I do that when they ain't at the top?
I'm just keeping it real
I can't look back and say that this flopped

'Cause I've been on my grind for a minute
I've been on my grind from day
Always putting time with the lyrics
Always put pen to the page
That's me for the rest of my days
Yeah, I've got stress on my brain
You don't, that's the reason I vent this rage
That's the reason I'm set in my ways
That's the reason I'm setting the pace
I've been on my grind for a minute
Yeah, I've been on my grind for a minute
I've been spitting on the mic for a minute
I've been spitting on the mic for a minute
I've been putting in the time for a minute
I've been putting in the time for a minute
I've been on my grind for a minute
Yeah, I've been on my grind for a minute

9 To 5 in my suit and tie
But 24/7 it's music life
You've only got one shot on this earth
So you better make sure that you use it right
This is my peace in hell
If I didn't have this, I might lose my mind
I hear 'em saying that I ain't gonna blow
So I gotta make sure I don't prove 'em right
Gotta be worth all them sleepless nights
Gotta be worth all them times when I didn't have shit in my pocket
Just a dream, so I bumped a train to jump on the mic
Gotta be worth all them times I nearly gave up 'cause I hated my life
Gotta be worth all them times I came back
From the brink and I put up a fight, right?

'Cause I've been on my grind for a minute
I've been on my grind from day
Always putting time with the lyrics
Always put pen to the page
That's me for the rest of my days
Yeah, I've got stress on my brain
You don't, that's the reason I vent this rage
That's the reason I'm set in my ways
That's the reason I'm setting the pace
I've been on my grind for a minute
Yeah, I've been on my grind for a minute
I've been spitting on the mic for a minute
I've been spitting on the mic for a minute
I've been putting in the time for a minute
I've been putting in the time for a minute
I've been on my grind for a minute
Yeah, I've been on my grind for a minute

For a minute, for a minute
For a minute, for a minute
For a minute, for a minute
