Sittin' in the ride got the beat just knocking
Contemplatin' life got the world still stoppin'
Young black male against odds in a place at a time
Opportunist, but oppression still around
Fingas in the air frustrated still bobbin'
Bangin' hip hop, but I'm movin' with caution
Living out my dream wondering why it ain't fair at times
All these privileged people, but where's mine
Putting in effort no matter what's what's still chosen
With flare and swag, I stay on 'em
Barred ain't nothing but the south stay holding
Keep the Word within me, steady battling out the locust
Spiritually we in a battle, naturally we in a battle
Peer pressure from my partners got trippin' so I dabble
Tryna live up out my dream, tryna up my self-esteem
Tryna progress my life from poverty to share my interbeing
You can, you can do anything you want, anything you want
Just get up and grind, and go get it, go get it
I can't describe how many times my mind
Is up and tried to throw it all away
Overwhelm with anxieties, I'm panicking
Tryna grind from day-to-day
Confidence just lack sometimes, my mood is down
With no one to relate, spiritually I am weak right now
Dear Lord through sound, please take this pain away
Then I remember all that He's done it's
Nothing's ever fair in life, how bad you want it
Punching overtime to achieve because I'm focused
Dealing away the thoughts in my head that cause destruction
Mentally I'm loaded in search for better days
The spade that I was dealt, gilded within a cage
Maybe it was the system, technology played a difference
The opportunities lack if darker don't be a victim
You can, you can do anything you want, anything you want
Just get up and grind, and go get it, go get it
But anything you want go ahead and put your mind to
I promise you can grind through, I promise you can grind through
But anything you want go ahead and put your mind to
I promise you can grind through, I promise you can grind through
But anything you want go ahead and put your mind to
I promise you can grind through, I promise you can grind through
But anything you want go ahead and put your mind to
I promise you can grind through, see I been sent to find you
Livin' wit the world comin' down with the mindset
Looking for His grace, and a path so I'm up next
Giving it a voice, one that soothes let it speak facts
Life is a vessel so that Jesus can come back
Blessin' the moves of the people around him
Dear Heavenly Father, an Angel to watch them
This is the sound of a young boy, these thoughts
Are what they seem, explore the consciousness
Of living through His dream
You can, you can do anything you want, anything you want
Just get up and grind, I promise you can grind through
And go get it, mind to, and go get it
I promise you can grind through
Mind to, I promise you can grind through
Put your mind to and grind through
Put your mind to, I been sent to find you
