We Don't Play
Grits Lyrics

Come on, come on, come on
Encouragement to get hyped up for what's to come

Come on, yeah, here we go, come on, yeah, somebody hold
Excitement building and a request for someone to hold them back

Can we get down, yeah, now bounce around, blah, yeah oh
Asking if the group can get into their rhythm and start bouncing around

We don't play, we came to get down, we do it like this everyday
Serious declaration that they are there to get down, not play games

Since we're the ones who are rep our city
Acknowledgment that they are representing their city and its culture

Gotta give it up to the ones who with me
Gratefulness for those who are with them and supporting them

We don't play, never have never will 'cause I got too much to give
Reinforcement that they are not playing around and will never do so because they have too much to offer

I got too much word and this life is too real
They have a lot to express and share through their lyrics and this life is too serious to not take seriously

Got to be heard and fight for you to feel me
They need to be heard and will fight to make sure their message is felt by their audience

Hit these curves and fight what you deal with
They will tackle the challenges and obstacles that come their way head-on

Speak truth and love in spite what you live with
Lyrics will reflect their truth and love regardless of the hardships they've faced

Hate what you came the mic is boldfaced
They have a no-nonsense attitude on the mic and won't put up with any hate or negativity

The mic is my knife, the words are my blade, cut through the musk
Metaphor that they will use their music to cut through the noise and get their message across

Stand up, everybody get up, we don't need nobody standin' around
A call to action for everyone to stand up and join in, no one should be a bystander

Now bounce and fall, break your neck, run that back
An instruction to keep bouncing and moving to the beat, with an added flair of a head nod

'Cause we don't play, what you say?
Reinforcement that they don't play games, and a challenge for anyone who disagrees

Got a bold new ridin' on the wings of a beat
Their music is fresh and innovative, flying high on a new beat

Check out the phenomena king of the stream
Showing off their skills as a unique and impressive artist in their genre

The aura of rules runnin' blood in his veins
They are breaking rules and expectations and it runs through them like blood in their veins

Former bully and a long thug to his pains
Acknowledging their past as a tough person, who has overcome their own struggles and pain

I'm runnin' wild and a child, yeah, so you hate with a smile
They are young and full of energy, with those who may dislike them wearing fake smiles

Go on give it to me now, don't frown fresher thinkin' how
They are inviting their critics to speak up and not hide behind fake smiles

Not to be a victim both guns blazin', blah
They refuse to be a victim and will stand up for themselves, ready to take on any challenge

Are we actin' prone receiving end of the phone
Questioning if they should just sit passively by and receive what is expected, or take action

Care to be the puzzle peace leaves to be shown
Motivating themselves to take control and show how they fit into the puzzle of life

Announcin' grace to the space fully blown
Spreading their grace and spirit to all spaces and places

Now bounce and chase and see the stuff that we own
Encouragement to keep moving forward and witness what they can accomplish

No, no, we don't play, blah, can we get down, blah
Reiteration that they are not playing games and asking for everyone to get into the rhythm

Now we do it like this, blah, can this be the sound
Proudly doing it their way and questioning if this is the future sound of music

We're often kneeling a knee, no other can be
They are often misunderstood but won't change themselves to fit into societal norms

Here it comes, yeah, bounce, yeah, come on, blah
Building excitement and anticipation for what's to come, encouraging everyone to keep moving along

We point it at your head
They are directing their music and message to everyone's headspace

Gonna spin it till you receive and admit it
They will keep sharing their music and message until it's received and accepted by their audience

And know that we did it, get it formfitted
They are proud of what they've accomplished and want it to fit perfectly into everyone's lives

I promise to vomit the verdict I honestly heard it spoken
Promising to speak the honest truth as they have heard it

A seemingly simple voice, freakin' the decision, the choice
While their voice may seem simple, it carries a powerful message that can affect people's decisions and choices

Stand up, keep your hands high, blah
Another call to action to stand up and keep moving

Right now we came to get down, blah
Agreement that they are here to get down and party

Ain't no question who bringin' it to you, ain't no explainin' it to you
There is no question that they are the ones delivering their music and message, and they won't explain it to anyone who doesn't understand

To keep it plain and simple bringin' this movement into you
They aim to keep their message plain and simple, bringing their movement into everyone's lives

This is serious down right
Reinforcement that they take their music and message seriously

Mysterious spiritual type lyrics is dealin' with you
Their unique and mysterious lyrics have a spiritual overtone and are meant to connect with their audience

Don't get it twisted, dude, just take a listen, dude
They are not to be underestimated, and they encourage everyone to listen to their message with an open mind

Realize we ain't for playin', we on a mission, dude
Awareness that they are not here to play games, they are on a mission to spread their message

Gotta give it up to the ones who with me, yeah
Gratefulness and acknowledgment to those who have been supporting them throughout their journey
