[Intro] Wake up Lace shoes Same shirt Same blues Same block Same view New grind Gotta break through (yeah) [Verse 1] Used to pray for a text sayin’ "funds cleared" Now I pray for the strength just to cut fear Credit calling I was ducking like it's bad news Til I learned every loan got a last fuse Quick cash But the chains last a long time Tiny print on the line That's a long lie They sell dreams with a fee on the back end I want peace Not a payment every weekend [Chorus] Hustle Don’t borrow for a better tomorrow Sweat in the daylight Sleep when it’s hollow Stack what you got Turn pain into product (We work!) we don't wait for a promise Hustle Don’t borrow for a better tomorrow Build from the bottom Own what you follow Slow grind But it’s mine when I got it (We grind!) we don’t rent out our options [Verse 2] Hand out looks sweet till the taste sour Thirty days turn years That’s a dark hour They said "Take it You can pay it when you’re on top" But that rope ‘round your neck make the climb stop So I flip time Flip skills into small wins Turn side gigs into bread and a real plan Every "no" that I hear fuel the next move Faith in the work Not a check that I can’t prove [Bridge] Count every cost in the calm Not the panic If I can’t buy it twice I don't grab it Rather wear last year’s shoes than a debt tag Than a fake brag Than a bright bag (nah) I'd rather struggle in the light of the morning Than shine on a lie with my future in forfeit [Chorus] Hustle Don’t borrow for a better tomorrow Sweat in the daylight Sleep when it’s hollow Stack what you got Turn pain into product (We work!) we don't wait for a promise Hustle Don’t borrow for a better tomorrow Build from the bottom Own what you follow Slow grind But it’s mine when I got it (We grind!) we don’t rent out our options [Outro] Wake up Lace shoes Same block New view Less fear More truth Better tomorrow ‘cause of what I do (yeah)
