now we grindin hard just like we wanna do gridin day n nite so we can kick off our shoes
and through the glamourous life look what we made it to.we some real life bosses got em
lookin at you we grind hard today harder we touch the stars thats what the call us
we grind hard to buy tommorow we grind hard
[Jadakiss]
24/7 365
if we aint breaking them down
then we letting them fly
nah never I, always we
I came in the game dividing the pies by three
then we got famish
so we set standards
very similar to the ten crack commandments
some couldn't take it
others got lost and couldn't make it
he wanted to floss but couldn't fake it
the hood embraced it
the rest is basics
no need to rush be extra patient
the new 4 door Porsche is extra spacious
same entourage no extra faces
hands down the best no explanations
and to the top is the next destination
there aint no time outs
death is the only time we gon sign out
so we gon grind out

[Mary J. Blige]
(Chorus)

[Jadakiss]
Top 5 dead or alive what they consider them
soon as them things come in we get rid of em
mo money mo problems gota live with em
only thing they care about is what you givin them
not the energy that you wasted in the game
or the tears that tripled down your face from the pain
the time the jaw cracked you wasted the cane
had to do two shifts to make it the same
that all changed 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 instead of the charter
leave a nice tip in the front for the gardener
do all of listening so we stay smarter
everybody's a hero when they get scarred up
its my ball check it up y'all better guard up
