[Intro: Will Smith]
Where I excell is ridiculous, sickening work ethic
You know, while the other guys sleeping, I'm working
When the other guys eating, I'm working

[Hook]
I been working hard, grinding twenty-four seven
Never take a day off til the day I go to heaven
Putting in the hours, my work ethic is a weapon
Don't get in my way boy or I'll teach you a lesson

[Verse 1]
Lately I been staying home
Lately I been off my phone
Lately I been on my own
Lately I been all alone
Lately I been shutting everybody out
Lately I been trying to get this thing figured out
Lately I been trying to work, but my mind's a drought
Lately I been trying figure out what I'm about
Everybody wanna tell me what they wanna hear
Be controlled by other people is my greatest fear
Everybody pointing out all my wrongs in here
Like really man, do none of y'all own a mirror
I got bigger plans with a bigger Man
Don't judge me, you don't understand
Don't mess with me, you don't want it man
Tryna get so high that I'll never land
Oh man

[Hook]
I been working hard, grinding twenty-four seven
Never take a day off til the day I go to heaven
Putting in the hours, my work ethic is a weapon
Don't get in my way boy or I'll teach you a lesson

[Verse 2]
Sit alone inside the lunchroom
Not invited to no function
Boy I been slaving away in my dungeon
Grinding for hours mixing a production
Boy I been working and working and working and working
Writing for hours til my fingers hurting
If I say I'll get it, I'll get it for certain
I'm tearing down borders and burning these burdens
I gotta get it, boy I gotta get it, boy I gotta get it, boy I'm gonna get it
Fear wants me to quit but I will never let it
Ain't stopping til all of my doubt is beheaded
Woah my work ethic is so epic but y'all are pathetic
That's right I just said it, boy never forget it
My pen is athletic, attracting these trophies I must be magnetic
I get it

[Hook]
I been working hard, grinding twenty-four seven
Never take a day off til the day I go to heaven
Putting in the hours, my work ethic is a weapon
Don't get in my way boy or I'll teach you a lesson

[Verse 3]
I ain't got time to slack off
Working round the clock
I'm about to blast off
Stay inside your own lane, why don't you back off
Stay away from me or you'll be on the black top, ooh
I never really been the type to follow any rules
Undefeated, ain't nobody taught me how to lose
At the top of my class cause I like the view
I don't wanna be the best, just better than you, yeah
I don't pretend to be things that I'm not
I'm sick of these phonies that think that they hot
I feel like LeBron cause I'm taking my shot
The day that I die is the day that I stop
All of y'all acting, I get to action
When I dropped my album I loved the reactions
They act surprised but I knew this would happen
My life is a ride, hope your seatbelt is fastened
Aye

[Hook]
I been working hard, grinding twenty-four seven
Never take a day off til the day I go to heaven
Putting in the hours, my work ethic is a weapon
Don't get in my way boy or I'll teach you a lesson
I been working hard, grinding twenty-four seven
Never take a day off til the day I go to heaven
Putting in the hours, my work ethic is a weapon
Don't get in my way boy or I'll teach you a lesson

[Bridge]
I been working hard, grind grinding, grind grinding twenty-four
I been working hard, grind grinding, grind grinding twenty-four
I been working hard, grind grinding, grind grinding twenty-four
I been working hard, grind grinding, grind grinding twenty-four
Twenty-four seven, twenty-four seven
Twenty-four seven, twenty-four seven
Twenty-four seven, twenty-four seven
Twenty-four seven, twenty-four seven

[Hook]
I been working hard, grinding twenty-four seven
Never take a day off til the day I go to heaven
Putting in the hours, my work ethic is a weapon
Don't get in my way boy or I'll teach you a lesson

[Verse 4]
Twenty-four seven, man this thing ain't a joke
I been putting in the hours, I don't wanna be broke
I been pulling all-nighters, one day I'm gon be the goat
It's funny cause I still remember when they said I would choke
I don't know if I'm an amateur, don't know if I'm a pro
Yeah but everybody knows that I been putting on a show
Aye they know that I'm dope
Dropped an album, on a roll
Woah but one thing for sure, that kid is an animal bro
