Back To The Grind Lyrics

They say home is where the heart is

I ain't got no home for starters

I got pain inside my veins

from lack of love and knowing darkness

See I started as a free soul

But then life got crazy before

I knew it I made friends

with those who wanted to see me fall

I slipped into the wrong crowds

I sat in peace they spoke loud

My heart told me to leave

but I wanted to make them all proud

I showed them my authentic self

To someone else their heart would melt

But these geezers were jealous

Never knew that they would give me hell

So I stuck around and made a choice

To be come like these other boys

But something wasn't right

I felt tension in the night

As I reflected back on the day

I'd remember all the things they say

They lived from insecurities

bad vibes is what they'd do to me

They couldn't even rise up

So they'd step on me and climb up

And I let this shit slide too long

I guess God made my skin too strong

And I couldn't fee the pain

as they attacked me from behind

Till one day I chose to change

And get back on to the grind
