Lyrics to Grain By Grain
Been so long since I floated in my zone
Whole lot of thunder rumble in my dome
I used to wanna sit up on the throne
Now I'm grown
I just hope that I can take care of my own
And my, and my people need a man of action
A leader who can understand and show compassion
See, I been chasing dreams, plain to see
The reality is that it's only up to me to make it happen, yeah
Grain by grain
Building castles in the sky with sands of time
Day by day
So until the day arrives, I'm standing by
Stay up out my way
Y'all should be about your business (Why's that?)
Because I will handle mine
Every time I take a stand I got the jury
Tryna tell me what I represent
They ain't got the evidence
Still, they tryna pin it on me
You can catch me in my off brand, everything
Shining like a wedding ring
Bottom dollar, bet it on me
Yeah, the jury tryna tell me what I represent
They ain't got the evidence
Still, they tryna pin it on me
You can catch me in my god damn, element
Grinding for the settlement
Keep my fam dependent on me
From the schoolyard to the jailhouse, to the jailhouse
Feel this shit like it was Braille now, like it's Braille now
Check be coming in the mail now, in the mail now
Ain't no way that I could fail now, fail now
Now all the listeners love me
I'm the one they believe in
All the movers is shaking
And all the critics critiquing
All these rappers be caking
Off the front, they be faking
Too many cooks in the kitchen
Keep every one of us waiting
But I ain't taking no orders
Prefer to give 'em instead
I put the food on the table
And then I pick up the check
Then I jet
Hands off the wheel 'cause I gotta fix the rudder
Get us back on course, sailing, storm water down the gutter
And I
And that thunder still rumbling in my dome (in my dome)
Inspiration strike like lightning then it's gone
Then it's back to handling business
Can I please get a witness?
No, my testimony ain't ever written in stone
Grain by grain
Building castles in the sky with sands of time
Day by day
So until the day arrives, I'm standing by
Stay up out my way
Y'all should be about your business
Because I will handle mine
Every time I take a stand I got the jury
Tryna tell me what I represent
They ain't got the evidence
Still, they tryna pin it on me
You can catch me in my off brand, everything
Shining like a wedding ring
Bottom dollar, bet it on me
Yeah, the jury tryna tell me what I represent
They ain't got the evidence
Still, they tryna pin it on me
You can catch me in my god damn, element
Grinding for the settlement
Keep my fam dependent on me
Yeah
You know the whole fam dependent on you, right?
Go get 'em
