I'm looking for inspiration but nothing inspire
I been working tirelessly but my feet getting tired
I had to put the weed down cause I ain't getting higher
Plus if I take a drug test, no job gonna hire
2 am in the morning, is this the verse that's gone get us out?
Apartment, to a house, to a mansion rappers rap about?
For now I got a job, baby about to come around
And when all you got is your word, man it's nothing you wanna talk about
I'm going broke from every studio, video, promo, fresh clothes, spots in all the local shows
Pride hurt cause the songs don't get downloads, tickets don't get sold, trying hard not to fold
My girl love me and she never complain, I spend money on the studio and never a date
Damn shame, if another nigga had her, he would have the world
Giving her roses while I give hope for a better world
Demons talking to the kid and I'm listening
Dreams ain't gonna work, fairy tales are for the richer men
You don't have connections, how the f*ck they gonna let you in?
Failure is your best friend and ya'll been getting cool again
I grind harder when the sun don't shine
I shine harder when the sun don't shine
Aye
I shine harder when the sun don't shine
I grind harder when the sun don't shine
Yeah
You see me riding through the night
Know everything alright
Cause really imma star, I belong in the sky
Aye
I grind harder when the sun don't shine
I shine harder when the sun don't shine
Yeah
I been coming off the bench but imma start today
I know I talk a lotta shit, but imma spit it from the heart today
It's pieces of my past I wish I could discard away
Some insecurities won't let me put the scars away
I been looking the mirror, I look unfamiliar
Finally growing up, I've become, what I had fears of
Use to be afraid of change, now a days, I pray for it
Wasn't taking many risks, now I feel I'm paying for it
What bridge I gotta burn, so I can see the right path?
What habit I gotta break to keep myself on task?
Who else I gotta lose so I can know who really here?
What pain i gotta feel so I can know what not to fear?
A man who lacks purpose, distracts himself with pleasure
A man who lacks talent can make it up with effort
Adjusting to the pain cause I know it ain't forever
Plus when that sunset I know I'll think of something clever
I grind harder when the sun don't shine
I shine harder when the sun don't shine
Aye
I shine harder when the sun don't shine
I grind harder when the sun don't shine
Yeah
You see me riding through the night
Know everything alright
Cause really imma star, I belong in the sky
Aye
I grind harder when the sun don't shine
I shine harder when the sun don't shine
Yeah
I grind harder when the sun don't shine
I shine harder when the sun don't shine
Aye
I shine harder when the sun don't shine
I grind harder when the sun don't shine
Yeah
You see me riding through the night
Know everything alright
Cause really imma star, I belong in the sky
Aye
I grind harder when the sun don't shine
I shine harder when the sun don't shine
Yeah
