Got me going for mines
At the drop of a dime
Always on the grind
Okay you know that
Everything will fine
One day at time
Only way to survive
Okay let's go
Got me going for mines
At the drop of a dime
Always on the grind
Okay you know that
Everything will fine
One day a time
Only way to survive
Okay let's go

What do ya do when they say that is lights out
And now it's black out
My mind all crazy I don't how to act now
How you go drop out
School to a 9-5
Ain't a bad route
What ya mean back track
Pull the map out
You going the back route
These days getting money can screw up
Your plans got no luck
Cuz bills in the way
And now we force to do things for quick buck
The system is messed up
Depress with a frown
Put your head up
Thought when I was young I'd never be in a rush
Now I'm grown up
To face the things that the world is showing us
Trying to hit the club to forget about the worry
But after the party it's back to same story I rather have sex but pussy won't last
Take off the latex
Pull out the pen and pad man the city is mad, ya know?

Got me going for mines
At the drop of a dime
Always on the grind
Okay you know that
Everything will fine
One day at time
Only way to survive
Okay let's go
Got me going for mines
At the drop of a dime
Always on the grind
Okay you know that
Everything will fine
One day a time
Only way to survive
Okay let's go

They want to see you loose
Thick or thin
Ya going in you gotta prove
That everyone that criticizes you
Is a damn fool
Misuse
Abuse by lies of a point of view
Disguise the cries
How can you tell the truth
Vandalize the pride
See the guns take out the youth
Pow, pow
They don't want to hire us
Gotta be to work
Or the boss go fire us
Who go be the role model?
How you go inspire us?
Get paid is the motto
Turn us all into a follower
Don't be trying to borrow me
Get your own stuff and don't listen to them dope heads
Man they on some other stuff code
And look who's showing up
The cops showing up
And you mad at him
My friend want to be a cop
Am I suppose to like him any less?
Blame it on police
Man, you a idiot
But don't forget

Got me going for mines
At the drop of a dime
Always on the grind
Okay you know that
Everything will fine
One day at time
Only way to survive
Okay let's go
Got me going for mines
At the drop of a dime
Always on the grind
Okay you know that
Everything will fine
One day a time
Only way to survive
Okay let's go

We all got a mission
In a bad condition
'Cause crime keep rising
And this hard living
You was gifted with a certain talent
Everybody is different
Gotta be a certain balance
Something is missing
Want to pop a pill
Sell drugs get a tattoo
Nigga, that's not me
And homie, that's not you
Be you be cool and love who you are
I was born to be a star
So I'm a raise the bar to a higher way of thinking
What were you thinking when you went raw
Now you looking Jy Loss
Got crabs and baby put your life on pause
No if ands and maybe's
Man I'm a go hard
Do it for my lady
See my daddy done raised me
And my mama done gave me a life
I'ma be what I'm gon' be
You don't gotta see what I'm gon see
You don't gotta see what I'm gon see
This me
