Blueprint & The Grind

Yeah, look

Used to dream big, now the real hits different, uh

Pictured mansions, foreign whips, ice on the wrist, no cap

Thought the grind was a myth, money just lands in your lap

Luxury suites, private jets, never stressin' the bill

Every lyric, every verse, felt like a certified thrill

Easy come, easy go, or so the story was sold

A king on the throne, every move was bold

This the life we thought, this the life we livin'

Blueprint in my head, but the streets keep on givin'

Hard knocks, cold nights, gotta keep on diggin'

Dream vs. reality, yeah, the hustle ain't forgivin'

Now it's late nights in the studio, ramen for dinner, for real

Battling demons, facing doubts, learning how to heal

Every step a challenge, every win a small breath

Chasing paper, dodging fakes, tryna escape from death

The vision's clearer now, the glamor starts to fade

It's 'bout the grit, the struggle, the real moves that are made

No silver spoon, just calloused hands, building empires from dust

Gotta stay hungry, stay humble, put your faith in the trust, let's go

This the life we thought, this the life we livin'

Blueprint in my head, but the streets keep on givin'

Hard knocks, cold nights, gotta keep on diggin'

Dream vs. reality, yeah, the hustle ain't forgivin'

From the imagined to the actual, the journey keeps goin'

Yeah, it's lit.
