📝 Full Lyrics: [Intro] Yeah… Grind Univ… Time don’t stop… so the grind don’t stop… [Hook] If you don’t grind, you don’t eat — that’s law No excuses, stand tall, never fold, never fall Pressure build diamonds, I was built for it all Standin’ on business every time that I call If you don’t grind, you don’t eat — no plate No handouts, no luck, just faith and weight Ten toes down, I don’t bend, I don’t break If it’s mine, I’ma work ‘til I take it — no wait [Verse 1] I came from the bottom where the lights stay dim Where the rent due loud and the hope stay slim Had to tighten my circle, couldn’t trust fake friends They was watchin’ my climb but ain’t helpin’ me win Late nights, no sleep, just vision and pain Turned losses to lessons, turned hurt into gain Every scar on my back got a story to claim I was built in the fire, I adapted to flame No excuses — nah, I don’t speak that language Either you work or your life stay stagnant I done seen too many dreams get buried ‘Cause they waited too long or got too comfortable carryin’ I ain’t waitin’ on nobody — I move on time Even when it’s dark, I still go shine If they doubt me, that fuel in my grind I don’t need approval — I define my climb [Hook] If you don’t grind, you don’t eat — that’s law No excuses, stand tall, never fold, never fall Pressure build diamonds, I was built for it all Standin’ on business every time that I call If you don’t grind, you don’t eat — no plate No handouts, no luck, just faith and weight Ten toes down, I don’t bend, I don’t break If it’s mine, I’ma work ‘til I take it — no wait [Verse 2] Stand on business, I don’t talk, I prove it Every move calculated, I don’t move foolish They want results but don’t wanna go through it They love the shine but don’t love the bruises I done sacrificed time, I done missed out days While they partied, I was buildin’ my way Now they lookin’ at me like it happened overnight But they ain’t see the grind in the dead of the night Discipline over feelings — I live by code Even when I’m tired, I still hit that road Gotta feed my family, gotta break that mold Legacy over comfort — that’s how I’m told No shortcuts, no luck, just grind and faith If it cost my comfort, that’s a price I’ll pay ‘Cause I’d rather die tryin’ than live halfway If I want it bad enough — I’ma find that way [Bridge] No handouts… no favors… Built this from pain — turned grind into paper… No excuses… no later… Either you hungry… or you just a spectator… [Final Hook / Chant Style] IF YOU DON’T GRIND — YOU DON’T EAT IF YOU DON’T WORK — YOU DON’T SEE WHAT YOU DREAM — WHAT YOU BE THIS AIN’T TALK — THIS REALITY IF YOU DON’T GRIND — YOU DON’T EAT TEN TOES DOWN — THAT’S ME NO EXCUSES — JUST ME AND THE WORK — TIL I’M FREE If you don’t grind, you don’t eat — no plate No handouts, no luck, just faith and weight Ten toes down, I don’t bend, I don’t break If it’s mine, I’ma work ‘til I take it — no wait [Verse 1] I came from the bottom where the lights stay dim Where the rent due loud and the hope stay slim Had to tighten my circle, couldn’t trust fake friends They was watchin’ my climb but ain’t helpin’ me win Late nights, no sleep, just vision and pain Turned losses to lessons, turned hurt into gain Every scar on my back got a story to claim I was built in the fire, I adapted to flame No excuses — nah, I don’t speak that language Either you work or your life stay stagnant I done seen too many dreams get buried ‘Cause they waited too long or got too comfortable carryin’ I ain’t waitin’ on nobody — I move on time Even when it’s dark, I still go shine If they doubt me, that fuel in my grind I don’t need approval — I define my climb [Hook] If you don’t grind, you don’t eat — that’s law No excuses, stand tall, never fold, never fall Pressure build diamonds, I was built for it all Standin’ on business every time that I call If you don’t grind, you don’t eat — no plate No handouts, no luck, just faith and weight Ten toes down, I don’t bend, I don’t break If it’s mine, I’ma work ‘til I take it — no wait [Verse 2] Stand on business, I don’t talk, I prove it Every move calculated, I don’t move foolish They want results but don’t wanna go through it They love the shine but don’t love the bruises I done sacrificed time, I done missed out days While they partied, I was buildin’ my way Now they lookin’ at me like it happened overnight But they ain’t see the grind in the dead of the night Discipline over feelings — I live by code Even when I’m tired, I still hit that road Gotta feed my family, gotta break that mold Legacy over comfort — that’s how I’m told No shortcuts, no luck, just grind and faith If it cost my comfort, that’s a price I’ll pay ‘Cause I’d rather die tryin’ than live halfway If I want it bad enough — I’ma find th
