The Grind
J-Stone Lyrics

Too many nights you was sleeping on me
I have experienced numerous occasions where you underestimated my worth or abilities.

And too many flights you was chasing but me
You were constantly seeking other opportunities and disregarding our connection.

Now, I don't want You to go away from me
I don't want you to distance yourself from me anymore.

Fuck that shit though You better watch out for these bitches
Disregard those negative feelings and be cautious of manipulative women.

They don’t have your best interest Talk behind your back But in your face they always grinning
They are not genuinely looking out for your well-being; they gossip about you but pretend to be friendly in person.

They gone fuck around with you And have yo ass in yo feelings
They will manipulate you emotionally and cause you distress.

They gone take what they want from you and then they dippin
They will take advantage of you and then abandon you.

They gonna take what they gonna take from you Say what they gonna say to you Give a fuck about you They gonna do what they gone say they do
These individuals will act according to their own desires, say whatever they want to you, and not care about your feelings.

You can try your very best I guarantee that they will play with you
Even if you give your all, they will still manipulate and toy with you.

Don't talk to niggas out up in these streets You gotta stay to you
Avoid engaging with people in the streets; focus on yourself and your own path.

You gotta focus on your passion And only worry bout your actions
Direct your energy towards your interests and goals, and prioritize your own actions over others' opinions.

Don't worry bout these corny fuck niggas always chattin
Don't concern yourself with these unimportant individuals who talk too much.

Shorty know I’m from New York so she said that you like my accent
A woman recognized my New York origin and complimented my accent.

I don't beef on the book All my opps you can ask em
I don't engage in online conflicts; you can ask my rivals about it.

Niggas talking crazy they get turned into some ashes
If people talk recklessly, they will face severe consequences or be destroyed.

I ain't worried bout my old bitch Nigga you can have it
I'm not concerned about my ex-girlfriend; you can have her.

And you know I come through I'm drippin in this fashion
You are aware that I always make a stylish entrance.

Niggas know I be on my grind
People recognize my dedication and hard work.

You gotta shine my nigga
You must also strive for success, my friend.

Friends turn to enemies Bitches turn to energy
Close friends can become enemies, and women can drain your energy.

Thoughts in my head That shit be darker than some Hennessy
The thoughts I have are extremely dark and heavy, similar to the darkness of Hennessy liquor.

I be going hard So I can see why niggas envy me
I work tirelessly, and that's why other men feel jealous of me.

Niggas talking bout me But they scared To come and step to me
People gossip about me, but they are too afraid to confront me directly.

Heart broke so many times Like where the love at
My heart has been shattered multiple times, and I question the existence of love.

Been sober 19 years So no not thinking Where the drugs at
I have been drug-free for 19 years, so I don't entertain the idea of seeking drugs.

So many bitches lied Like where the trust at
Numerous women have deceived me, and I wonder where I can find trust.

And stop talking about them guns You ain't gone buss that
Cease discussing firearms if you aren't going to use them.

I don't fuck with nobody Like I fuck with Roccet
I don't associate with anyone except my trusted friend Roccet.

Nigga play with me Then he gone put two in his noggin
If someone tries to mess with me, they will end up with a bullet in their head.

Gang know I'm solid I won't move through the hardships
My gang knows I am reliable and won't back down in difficult situations.

And Bitch that's word to Eddie I won't forget where I started
And that's a promise to my friend Eddie: I will always remember my humble beginnings.

I forgive I don't forget But niggas got me in my head now
I am capable of forgiveness, but I won't forget what people have done to me; however, their actions have left me feeling troubled.

If I forgot them fake niggas Damn I could've been ahead now
If I had disregarded those deceitful individuals, I could have achieved greater success by now.

Aye balling on these niggas Bitch I'm feeling like Durant now
I am dominating and excelling in my field, just like basketball player Kevin Durant.

Nigga play with me Glltt, BOAW That's a man down
If someone tries to mess with me, they will be shot, and that will be the end for them.

Niggas know I be on my grind
People are aware that I am constantly working hard.

You gotta shine my nigga
You also need to succeed and make a name for yourself, my friend.

You gotta shine my nigga
You must continue to strive for greatness, my friend.
