By The Hour

I'm just hoping it pays off All this time I've been on my grind Ain't wasting no time Or days off Paying my dues Trying to stay in my truth Gets heavy I'm knocking this weight off Drinks on me Fear of failure stinks on me Either watch me swim or sink slow slowly But f*ck it I don't care what they think Not at all, baby, not at all, baby I'm on the rise and so many see me fall baby I don't do no hiding so I invite them all Cause I'm looking at the prize and my eyes on the ball baby Every single wall that I ran into, I broke through And all of the failures that I made is just some more proof You ain't ever ever gotta have it all figured out Because determination finds a way to show through Niggas the verge of giving up is who I spoke to Trying to motivate me because I didn't have a go to Now I found the audience and I ain't even mean it And look at how they cheer me on, and I don't even need it I'm living in my confidence and I found peace in the stress I don't care about what I lost because I'm coming for the rest Nothing more nothing less could be asked because I'm blessed If the journey on the way, there is a test I'm just hoping it pays off All this time I've been on my grind Ain't wasting no time Or days off Paying my dues Trying to stay in my truth Gets heavy I'm knocking this weight off Drinks on me Fear of failure stinks on me Either watch me swim or sink slow slowly But f*ck it I don't care what they think I'm on this soulless road It's cold it timeless aimless And souls as old as mine is bold and chainless And overtime's my norm it's almost dangerous If pain is the way to see gains then bitch I'll be famous In no time, my brother text me every morning like it's yo time I text him back a fire emoji is go time They say the greatest habit harder well it's showtime Give me some more time I might let my depression get me on a low time But that don't ever stop my movements I'm for sure fine I can't sleep, bro. I'm at a peak bro and one bad morning ain't gonna f*ck up my whole week, so I'm a keep on strutting on and continue Putting content every day out til it's taunting you If you ain't working while the blood still pump in you Your dreams, gonna become nightmares, haunting you Ayy man I'm just telling you the truth I know A lot of niggas say they want but a few gonna go A lot of niggas put the work in and it still don't work But I'll be damned if I don't try out first I'm just hoping it pays off All this time I've been on my grind Ain't wasting no time Or days off Paying my dues Trying to stay in my truth Gets heavy I'm knocking this weight off Drinks on me Fear of failure stinks on me Either watch me swim or sink slow slowly But f*ck it I don't care what they think
