Grind Lyrics by Joe Barksdale

Electric Soul

2019

[verse]
I wanna be free
Like a bumblebee, flying free
In nature's flowers
Trying to make honey
Money makes people like me
But not for me, no
Just for the dollar signs
And come ups they see
[Bridge]
So I sit on the earth and wonder why
How I fell down from the sky
[Chorus]
Life is a grind (a grind, a grind)
Life is a grind baby
Said all of the time (the time, the time)
I wanna get away, get away (ooh ooh ooh)
Life is a grind (a grind, a grind)
Life is a grind baby
All of the time (the time, the time)
I wanna get away, run away (ooh ooh ooh)
[Verse 2]
I try to anticipate
When my troubles will dissipate
Sometimes life is tough (Yeah)
As a two dollar steak (Mhmm)
I really can't relate, nah
To the hate that people throw in my face
Come on, come on I'm just trying, huh
Just trying to be great
[Bridge]
So, I sit on the earth and wonder why
How I fell down from the sky
[Chorus]
Life is a grind (a grind, a grind)
Life is a grind baby
Said all of the time (the time, the time)
I wanna get away, get away (ooh ooh ooh)
Life is a grind (a grind, a grind)
Life is a grind baby
Say all of the time (the time, the time)
I wanna get away, run away (ooh ooh ooh)
[rap]
Everybody has bad days but sometimes you just gotta remind yourself: everything happens for a reason baby, yeah!
[Guitar solo: Joe Barksdale]
[Bridge]
So, I sit on the earth and wonder why
How I fell down from the sky
[Chorus]
Life is a grind (a grind, a grind)
Life is a grind baby
Said all of the time (the time, the time)
I wanna get away, get away (ooh ooh ooh)
Life is a grind (a grind, a grind)
Life is a grind baby
All of the time (the time, the time)
I wanna run away, walk away, run away
It's a grind
