I try my best most of the time But I’m convinced that I’m lazy in someone else’s eyes Yeah, I’m working so hard just to show I’m on the grind (I'm on the grind!) It’s an imperfect balance of what makes my life I’m using my mom as a level just to make it all right Keep a tight schedule, try to make it look easy But the view from the inside is starting to freeze me! (Chorus) Please tell me why! I’m dreaming bigger than most could fathom But I’m falling through the floor of a jagged canyon Yeah, I’ll keep this pace as long as I need For maybe one day I’ll have the tools to succeed! (The tools to succeed!) (Verse 2) Yeah, the clock is ticking and I’m pushing the pace Got a smile on my lips but a mask on my face If I don’t make it out, I can only imagine How the dream got lost in the middle of the passion I’m working so hard just to show I’m on the grind But I’m leaving my sanity somewhere behind! (Chorus) Please tell me why! I’m dreaming bigger than most could fathom But I’m falling through the floor of a jagged canyon Yeah, I’ll keep this pace as long as I need For maybe one day I’ll have the tools to succeed! (Bridge - Bass heavy, slowing down) But if I don’t... Yeah, if I don't... I'll just imagine. I'll just imagine! (Guitar Solo - Fast and frantic) (Outro) I’m on the grind! (On the grind!) I’m on the grind! (Can't you see I'm trying?) Yeah, it’s my own... worst... grind.
