The Grind
TQ · Other Songs - TQ
And different time
And I just donÂ’t know a better way
For me to get mine
ThatÂ’s why I got to shine
The game been good to me
AinÂ’t nothing gonna stop my grind
So it ainÂ’t no need to fake on me
There are some folks just too far behind in their mind
And itÂ’s a crime crime
But little terry gonna keep on rolling
(Chorus)
I see you trying to get me
Never gonna let them busters get to me
Even if u with me
Always keep my tall eyes open
U canÂ’t stick me
I got something for the whole damn world to see
So im gonna give it up
U best belive me
AinÂ’t gonna get me off of my grind
Its exactly what it seems to be
For all of those times
U wish for some prosperity
All you could find
Was hate to see them lies
So you tell somebody else
To get it off your mind
Well I start hearing melodyÂ’s
So I grabt my pen and pad and recline
On my grind
(Chorus)
(Rap by Warren G)
We on the grind y'all
Cuz we some worldwide riders
What, we on a grind y'all, uh-huh, uh-huh, yeah
You jackin' me up, you takin' my cash
All my life, LBC, for my city I mash
All these OG's and BG's and wanna-bes and L-O-C's
The only friends I got is my 2-1-3
Just my dog Snoop-T-Woop and my nigga N-A-T-E
Can't forget about my nigga H to the dizzy
Pressure and strifes, them wanna take my whites
But these jaw jacks and hood cracks
Will make you break some bizacks
What you thought?
Ya know what I'm sayin', we on the grind like that
Thought we was trippin'?
Haha, all you thought we had was jeans and t-shirts?
What? We hustlin' cuz we want it all, Brand new socks and drawers, fool
(Chorus)
