The Grind

So I'm sitting in class bored half to death
Should be writing but nah; contemplating selling some meth
Pssh, I'm not Breaking Bad; lemme catch my breath
I'm asthmatic but these rhymes still kill like Macbeth
I often try to finesse; leaving snakes in my wake
Marie Antoinette on these peasants like "Let them eat cake!"
Do you get it? Prolly not; pull the emergency brake
Run away, its a disaster like that Haitian earthquake
Surrounded by white girls like "Oh. My. God.."
"I went to get Starbucks and that shit was totes flawed!"
That's Clemson for you but believe me its good
Got me thinking to myself like the little engine that could
Aha bet ya'll thought a hook was coming after that
But no; this something new I hope it doesn't fall flat
I go to a school that's "where the tigers play"
Screaming "We Too Deep!" on every game day
"Fight tigers, fight tigers!" is the chant that we do
Put that orange and purple on and wave to the haters "adieu!"
Enough about school; I have all the knowledge
Even before I got to Clemson I was a sophomore in college
I'm called Young Hope Solo, the Political Animal
I'm ruthless, I'm unceasing, I'm increasingly adaptable
The Presidency is my goal though; I'm seeking the capital
The way I'll rise to power you would've guessed it was magical
Pick a card! Any card! Just trust me I know it
King of Diamonds, bitch I guessed it; now do you believe I'm legit?
Throwing hundreds like a g, sipping on some sweet tea
Leave you swinging from a tree; that's Southern hospitality
Too graphic? Oh my bad, I forgot you a bitch
Bet you useless like a goddamn Android with a glitch
The grind is my drug, success my addiction
When I'm President best believe I won't resign like Dick Nixon
Watergate was a scandal, a pretty huge deal
Mind of Olivia Pope; that's every strong black woman's ideal
Shoutout to Ashlee; she killed this remake
Got ya'll dancing and moving more than the Harlem Shake
Hit that Nae Nae one time and hit that yeet too
Do an old school two step; that shit is so tried and true
I guess I'll write a hook now, I mean it really wouldn't hurt
I've kept your attention this long; think of it as a dessert
It ain't nothing to keep the grind on
It ain't nothing to keep the grind on
365 from dusk till dawn
It ain't nothing to keep the grind on
