Responsibility

Since the beginning, man had a grind
So I figured out, it's our time
Yeah, to have his mission on our mind
Trip tell 'em boys why you on your grind

I be on the grind, been married for a little bit
My wifey on my mind, we walk together livin' it
(Trip, Do you take Jess?) she's a gift, God delivered it
And Jess would take Trip like visitors, what grind mean?
I got a high call on the way I love her in his name
I'da die fo'er (like who?) like the Risen King
Wish I was the perfect man, but I still be sinnin' mayne
That makes this picture incomplete, like it's missin' frames
But natural ways are flawed, gotta go against the grain
Get that water of the word pouring like it's dripping rain
(Listen) I be grinding for a lifetime, very long
We got that Superman love, very strong

I be on the grind, I be on the grind
I be on the grind, I-I-I be on the grind
I be on the grind, I be on the grind
I be on the grind, I-I-I be on the grind
Now you can catch me going in, got my focus on 10 boy
I be on the grind, I-I-I be on the grind
Got his mission on my mind, man you can keep the shine
I be on the grind, I-I-I be on the grind

Since the beginning, man had a grind
So I figured out, it's our time
Yeah, to have his mission on our mind
'Crae go ahead and tell 'em boys why you on your grind

Hustle hard and fold them dollars, he don't even notice
Yeah he got that tissue paper, all he ever do is blow it
As a Christian I'm on mission, man I stay up on my grind
It's some stuff I ain't buying, 'cause this money's here ain't mine
I be on the grind, I-I-I be on the grind
I ain't talking riddles when I say that budget on my mind
Ten percent I do repent, I spend more than that on kicks
Wanna give my Father honor, he provide all that I get
You got plenty credit bills yet and still you don't sweat it
You don't see that you in debt, you just think that's extra credit
People dying for some lettuce while we buying every fetish
We could show them Jesus better 'stead of spending like a teller, tell 'em

I be on the grind, I be on the grind
I be on the grind, I-I-I be on the grind
I be on the grind, I be on the grind
I be on the grind, I-I-I be on the grind
Now you can catch me going in, got my focus on 10 boy
I be on the grind, I-I-I be on the grind
Got his mission on my mind, man you can keep the shine
I be on the grind, I-I-I be on the grind

Since the beginning, man had a grind
So I figured out, it's our time
Yeah, to have his mission on our mind
T-Dot go and tell 'em why you on your grind

Man we so passive we skip it, sh-shifting blame no transmission
No ownership like we rentin', we let it go and we quit it
C-Can't admit it, we did it, make my mistakes and forget it
We only act like we're men, somebody get 'em an Emmy
"Did I do that?" making excuses for our actions
Man I keep it Ben Franklin, I ain't down with Andrew Jackson
Real men make mistakes, and they own up to 'em quickly
Real men take the heat, you can call it Dirk Nowitzki
And they do it 'cause he did it, motivated by the King
Moving every man by his hand minus all the strings
I'm living like he lived, yeah that's what I call a grind
And since he carried his, homeboy I carry mine

I be on the grind, I be on the grind
I be on the grind, I-I-I be on the grind
I be on the grind, I be on the grind
I be on the grind, I-I-I be on the grind
Now you can catch me going in, got my focus on 10 boy
I be on the grind, I-I-I be on the grind
Got his mission on my mind, man you can keep the shine
I be on the grind, I-I-I be on the grind
