Lyrics August Alsina – Grindin’
Text:
We come from fords and expeditions
Slangin’ papers with ambition
Cause back in my younger day
That’s just how we make a living
Learnt to hustle from my moms
That’s the G shit and the G simply stands for grind
(Grind; Grind; Grind; Grind; Grind)
I’mma drop this shit for the hell of it
Cause I’m outchea grindin’ can’t tell me shit
People ask why you took so long, how you go so strong
Cause it’s timing in all this shit
When a nigga try to let his past go, he be reminded of all his shit
Niggas don’t go as hard as I do, I be fighting for all that I get
I gotta question why you hatin’ on me? Cause I’m probably grindin’ his bitch
Everybody who was checkin’ for a nigga and was reppin’ for a nigga
I appreciate your prayers I respect you my nigga
A lot of these lames kept hatin’ on a nigga
When I took a little fall you was steppin’ on a nigga
If you keep it one hundred then I salute you my nigga
If I see you comin’ for me, I’ll shoot you my nigga
But you’re grindin’ like I got something to prove my nigga
Bet you couldn’t walk a mile in my shoes my nigga
A lot of my niggas ain’t here this year
I cry for all my niggas, love everybody in my squad, I’d die for all them niggas
I give a fuck about all these rumors
Cause the truth will never be in them
And they love to see when I’m losin’
So they hate to see when I’m winnin’
That decked out house on the hill, I’m in it
If there’s a million dollar club, I’m in it
Determined to get it so this shit don’t phase me
Even though I’m me, I see no competition I refuse to be defeated
A lot of these niggas ain’t working at all
I chase this check for my family and all
I just got out of a coma and it showed me that
When God is for me no weapon can hold me
That’s why I go hard for N.O. and my homies
And I pay homage to niggas before me
Who came back and told me go hard like Ginobili
And grind for all of this shit
Doctor told me I’m exhausted and shit
Can’t stop now I’m never gone quit
Not until I see my mama not wanting for nothing
And I see my brothers just livin’ for a livin’
And I see my squad spending money like it’s nothing
That’s why I’m grinding everyday to make a way because
We come from fords and expeditions
Slangin’ papers with ambition
Cause back in my younger day
That’s just how we make a living
That’s how I was taught to grind
Learnt to hustle from my moms
That’s the G shit and the G simply stands for grind
I’mma drop this shit for the hell of it
Cause I’m outchea grindin’ can’t tell me shit
