Sowing the Dime

[Intro – spoken, low] Some people run the field… I chose to tend the ground. ⸻ [Hook] I ain’t runnin’ for fruit that ain’t ripe yet I been workin’ the soil, that’s mindset Let it grow slow, I don’t force none When the roots right, the wealth gon’ come I ain’t chasing rain, I read the sky I plant in seasons, I don’t ask why I move with time, I don’t press stress Whole harvest waiting, I’m patient ⸻ [Verse 1] I seen men sprint just to starve again Burn through crops, never plant again Flash too quick, then the land go dry Look rich one summer, then wonder why I learned early: dirt on my hands Worth more long-term than gold in the sand If it need me daily, it ain’t alive I want fields that feed me when I’m not around ⸻ [Hook] I ain’t runnin’ for fruit that ain’t ripe yet I been workin’ the soil, that’s mindset Let it grow slow, I don’t force none When the roots right, the wealth gon’ come I ain’t chasing rain, I read the sky I plant in seasons, I don’t ask why I move with time, I don’t press stress Whole harvest waiting, I’m patient ⸻ [Verse 2] Had to clear weeds that was close to me Dead weight choking what’s supposed to be You can’t grow much in borrowed land I needed space, had to take a stand Now every seed got a purpose here No wasted steps, no nervous fear I don’t count days, I count cycles Built for long runs, not quick titles ⸻ [Bridge – melodic, airy] Sun come up, I don’t rush it Roots stay deep, I trust it What I planted knows my name It gon’ rise when the time right ⸻ [Final Hook – layered, calm] I ain’t runnin’ for fruit that ain’t ripe yet I been workin’ the soil, that’s mindset Let it grow slow, I don’t force none When the roots right, the wealth gon’ come I ain’t chasing rain, I read the sky I plant in seasons, I don’t ask why I move with time, I don’t press stress Whole harvest waiting, I’m patient ⸻ [Outro – spoken, fade] You can’t rush what’s meant to feed you. Let it grow.
