Grinding Through

Late nights, early mornings, never slow
I kept grinding when they told me, "Let it go."
They couldn't see the vision, thought I'd fold
But now I'm climbing, and the future's gold
Every step forward, pain in my chest
But I'm still moving, no time to rest
They laughed, they doubted, now they're asking how
'Cause I'm making moves while they're stuck in the crowd

Grinding through, I see the signs
All the sweat I gave, it's finally mine
No shortcuts, no easy way
I bled for this, now it's my day
Grinding through, no turning back
I'm on the rise while they're losing track

It's been a long road, full of uphill fights
But I'm stronger now, chasing brighter lights
They told me quit, but I stayed true
Now I'm seeing dreams come into view
It wasn't luck, wasn't a game of chance
I made my way through blood and circumstance
They want the glory, but they fear the cost
I took the hits, I paid the loss

Grinding through, I see the signs
All the sweat I gave, it's finally mine
No shortcuts, no easy way
I bled for this, now it's my day
Grinding through, no turning back
I'm on the rise while they're losing track

It's the climb that defines the view
Success tastes sweet when it's overdue
Every bruise, every scar I wear
Reminds me that I'm halfway there
I didn't break, didn't lose the fire
Kept grinding through, reaching higher

Grinding through, I see the signs
All the sweat I gave, it's finally mine
No shortcuts, no easy way
I bled for this, now it's my day
Grinding through, no turning back
I'm on the rise while they're losing track

It's not the end, but I'm getting close
The grind keeps moving, but I'm now the host
They can't deny what's coming true
I built this life, I'm grinding through
