[Verse 1: P Nero] Yes, I grind, my lines, the reason why I can't even look up in the mirror and feel good about myself, uh God bless a man that holds his own And I'm a man that holds my own so I'm blessed, I guess I've got two kids of my own that love to watch TV, CBeebies and Tiny Pop But every time that they go to watch their favourite show Televising programme is showed, they need more than what they've got so I hear this "Daddy come and look at this, see Dad, I like that" "Daddy can you buy me that new Bratz doll, Dora Explorer and Barbie set?" Course I can, you're dad's the man I don't stress, I just man up, hit my stash, cut my grams up Hit the road and get my grands up, I find the cheddar But when you grind for cheddar, it's a gift and a curse Success and consequence, I done been through a go-through I did time for my life, now I'm back on the roads Roll gymnast, I practice rap's acrobatics Pick up through then disappear, kitty cat's magic I don't hear, not care what they're saying Money talks and we converse every day, Nero [Hook: Wretch 32] Look, I don't wanna grind for life But I have to provide for mine Listen, I don't wanna grind for life But I have to provide for mine
[Verse 2: Calibar] By all means, I will treble my dough I moved all green and I'm peddling snow Served more fiends, turned sheckles to notes Turned more keys like skeletons though, for someone special at home My dear daughter, Baby Jay For her I'll break this eighth Planet of apes Her young father's no half-heart, he ain't wasting a day Of pitching Os or crack The taxman's harsh so I overtrap And these deductions are reckless So I'm left with this minor percentage And that's meant to be my gas and my light bill Mortgage and my Sky bill Comes to a total of nine bills Plus insurance and petrol, you could afford an extra five pills Am I wrong cuh I move white? And if I'm wrong then who's right? Society's designed me to struggle But not me darg, I'mma stay, I'mma hustle So I've gotta be as real as I can be Gotta provide for my family So I resulted to plan B Before the finger of judgement comes for your food like canteens
[Hook: Wretch 32]
[Verse 3: Wretch 32] Listen, I ain't gonna lie, I didn't like the rain Or the slight complaints nor the time of day But when my son gets hungry, I can find a place And do like Simon says, because Simon says That you have to provide for your family So I was on the grind like life couldn't stand me Tryna buy rice cuh I had Ps Life isn't gravy, so I hit the road like I'm bad breed If only I can sleep, 4am But I still need a few more bills for my canteen Living like a prisoner, tryna buy food So I'm picking up superglue stuck on the curb So if I need something to turn, I'm sticking up Nothing to prove but this game ain't something to lose You couldn't put your souls in my shoes You would die just toking the fumes, if only you knew About the house I worked in Conversating with a doubtless person Cuh he would just pray I had something cuh the drug would hurt him I could see through his windows without the curtains
