Grind Hard - Jadakiss, Mary J. Blige

Oooh!

Ooh!

Ooh!

Ooh!

Oooh!

Ooh!

Ooh!

Ooh!

Oooh!

Ooh!

Ooh!

Ooh!

Now we shinin' hard just like we wanna do

Grindin' day and night, so we can kick off our shoes

And there’s the glamorous life;

look what we made it to!

We some real live bosses, got 'em lookin' at you

We grind hard (oooh-ooh!) To play harder (oooh-ooh!)

We touch the stars (oooh-ooh!) That’s what they call us (oooh-ooh!)

We grind hard (oooh-ooh!) To fight 'em all off (oooh-ooh!)

We grind hard (oooh-ooh!) To play harder (oooh-ooh!)

Ha-ha!

Yo!

Twenty-four seven, three-six-five

If we ain’t breaking 'em down, then we lettin' 'em fly!

Nah — never I, always we

I came in the game dividin' the pies by three

Then we got famished, so we set standards

Very similar to the +Ten Crack Commandments+

Some couldn’t take it, others got lost and couldn’t make it

We wanted to floss, but couldn’t fake it!

The Hood embraced it, the rest is basic

No need to rush, be extra patient!

The new four-door Porsche is extra spacious

Same entourage, no extra faces!

Hands down, the best — no explanations!

And to the top is the next destination!

And ain’t no time-outs!

Death is the only time

We gonna sign-out!

So we gonna grind out!

What?!

Ha-ha!

Ugh!

Yeah!

Yo!

Top 5, Dead Or Alive’s what they consider him!

Soon as them things come in, we get rid of 'em

+Mo Money, Mo Problems+ - gotta live with 'em!

Only thing they care about is what you givin' 'em!

Not the energy that you wasted in the game

Or the tears that trickled down your face from the pain

The time your jaw cracked, you wasted the 'caine

Had to do two shifts to make it the same!

That all changed, as soon as you tasted the fame

And it was all worth it, after you made you a name

Thanks to Our Heavily Father

We fly on the jet now, 'stead of the charter

Leave a nice tip in the front for the gardener

Do a lot of listenin', so we stay smarter

Everybody’s a hero, when they get scarred-up

It’s my ball — check it up, y’all better guard-up!

Let’s go!

When we step up out that car

The whole damn world’s lookin' at us

Cause they knew what’s from before

Now we ain’t hurtin' no more

«You can bring me the bill, I’ll sign my name!»

Now we’re flyin' private planes and such

Lookin' like a million bucks

+You Can’t Tell Me Nothing!+
