Grind all day
Hustle for the paper all time, all day
HAL 9000 red eye all day
Working so hard all night, all day
Yeah!

Grindin' all day,
Just to earn a small cheque that they call pay
HAL 9000 red eye all day
Getting no rest on that bed that you lay
That's what I hear people say...
A life that I don't want for me
Having only crumbs from the bread like monopoly
Getting no sleep on that bed that you lay
HAL 9000 red eye all day

Dying on the job
That's the life that I don't want for me
I just wanna chill living life comfortably
Working till I’m 60 for a pension that's so off for me
I just want a good life is that so hard to want for me
Modern day slavery, working till our hands bleed nope
And the system selling dreams so we all just hope
Praying to our gods for change, but I just can't cope
Searching answers from the Imam and Catholic Pope
Waiting on that white dove, like serving bar soap
Now I understand the reason why a homie slang dope
Put his life on the line like he hung it from rope
Touchy feely for the money like grope
Life so hard you can see the pain and suffering right through ones eye
Red when they see like water next to Egypt close to die
Grind your whole life for a man that is on top of you
Working overtime for a pay that undervalues you

Grindin' all day,
Just to earn a small cheque that they call pay
HAL 9000 red eye all day
Getting no rest on that bed that you lay
That's what I hear people say...
A life that I don't want for me
Having only crumbs from the bread like monopoly
Getting no sleep on that bed that you lay
HAL 9000 red eye all day
That's what I hear people say...

Go to school and get you a degree
I done it ain't no problem testing me
I use mine as a safety net in case my dreams don't make enough p
I have some place to fall safely
That ain't a problem
My issue is not chasing all your dreams when you got em
My issue is, settling for less when you got em
My issue is the system that we in...
Making life for us a bloody pyramid scheme
Like they rather see us die than give the knowledge to succeed
Keep the secrets to they self to watch a brother cause a scene
So they don't have to tell us all the truth they have within
On some Space Odyssesy, HAL 9000 shit
Yeah
From that silver spoon people want a bite
But why selfish when you can share the light
Lean when I walk like sipping dirty sprite
Cos I know my future heavy from this work I put in early in my life

Grindin' all day,
Just to earn a small cheque that they call pay
HAL 9000 red eye all day
Getting no rest on that bed that you lay
That's what I hear people say...
A life that I don't want for me
Having only crumbs from the bread like monopoly
Getting no sleep on that bed that you lay
HAL 9000 red eye all day

All I wanna do is eat good everyday,
So I'm spending all my money on a plate that can provide for me,
All the different type of things I want I need
So I never suffer till I'm walking on my knees
Want to provide for myself and my family
The ones I care about homie and that's my primary
So my focus on the game like a ring that's what I'm married to
Preaching motivation for the kids that's what I ought to do
I wanna hear people say,
How great that it feels that they living good today
Don't get me wrong,
I ain't saying do not get a job
Just make sure that you happy doing what you love
And I ain't fully there, so I pray to God above
Waiting for the blue skies from the grey above
Yeah,
Oh my God, Oh my God
Oh my God,
Oh my God,
Oh my God!

Grindin' all day,
Just to earn a small cheque that they call pay

That's what I hear people say...
A life that I don't want for me
Having only crumbs from the bread like monopoly
Getting no sleep on that bed that you lay
HAL 9000 red eye all day

I wanna hear people say,
Grindin' all day,
Doing what I love and earning good pay,
No HAL 9000 red eye all day
Getting good rest on that bed that you lay
I wanna hear people say…
A life I've always want for me
Having good slice from the bread, no monopoly
Getting good sleep on that bed that you lay,
No HAL 9000 red eye all day

I wanna hear people say,
Grindin' all day,
