I been on my grind sometimes/
Working hard to try to save a life sometimes/
But life is still life sometimes/
It ain't easy cause I got a mic sometimes/
I been putting in my time/
Wonder if it's really worth the grind sometimes/
I've been given God some time/
He told me I gotta take it back/
Verse 1
I am just reflecting what it means to be in greatness/
Just wanna be my best before I go and meet my maker/
Some days feel like a failure others feeling like the greatest/
Race not given to the swift and oh Lord just gotta make it/
This world been kind of ice cold slight froze it seems/
Daddy left when I was five won't trade my babies for the cream/
I got all I want, won't trade legacy for a dream/
If I ever gotta choose look at my goals chuck them things/ (look)
I been up, I been low, been in cold and I been exposed/
Know what it is when you're feeling low, like I did my best but where can I go?/
Beef with life fork in the road, abandonment brandished my goals/
What can of man left me alone, but the Son of Man landed my soul/
Now I know that I can I make it, I ain't talking cash or famous/
I ain't talking bout' no placements, a higher level of greatness/
I'm pointing to the King, fade to black, wait for credits/
Living in the in-between, fade to exit blessit/

Verse 2
I know the finest grapes are produced on the finest vines/
And pressure and the time what it takes for the finest wines/
It's a shame how many fold when they comfort is on the line/
Give me Rachel faith spit death in the face like Columbine/
I get the temptation I'm a man and I ain't divine/
Just want to be proud reviewing that tape when we eye to eye/
And that's by grace, gonna get me to that place plus get my by/
It's better I stay here no plans of me saying bye/
Green pastures, where I lay here amazed God supplies/
Supreme Master, same faith full time nine to five/
Give me strength to be the man my children need in this life/
Fight the fear that I'll repeat and meet my father's demise/
Give me the peace to be the husband that Tia needs/
And do it all by your grace knowing it isn't me/
If I do that for a lifetime and then succeed/
And nobody remembers my name promise that's good enough for me/
Yes indeed
