Cubie - Always Been lyrics

I said I said I said I've always been, always been I swear I've always been hustling trying to take care of myself Always been hustling more than everybody else I swear I've always been hustling trying to prove it to myself I've always been, always been I swear I've always been hustling trying to take care of myself Always been hustling more than everybody else I swear I've always been hustling trying to prove it to myself I've always been, always been yeah I put in the work and the time With every verse and each line I'm grinding the first of the month I look at it like it's lunch And lunch means that it's time to eat So I'm searching for a feast I always go wild on tracks I am a dog with no leash And every verse clean like a shower I'm just looking for that power Want money stacked tall as a tower Never running ain't no coward I'm working for hours on end I ain't got time to pretend I got a good eye for the weak So fakes got no time to befriend Look I've been struggling and hustling Got to put that weight, got to put that work, got to put that muscle in So I'm grinding hard and at the top is what I'm trying to reach Learning from the world but soon it's gonna be my time to teach I swear I've always been hustling trying to take care of myself Always been hustling more than everybody else I swear I've always been hustling trying to prove it to myself I've always been, always been I swear I've always been hustling trying to take care of myself Always been hustling more than everybody else I swear I've always been hustling trying to prove it to myself I've always been, always been yeah In my life I realize things ain't what they seem Making plans to fix the world Turning into to broken dreams Look into the sky and wonder if there's any hope for me Rapping trying to make a name in hopes that someone notice me Working hard all day and night I do it for those close to me One day they gonna raise their gla**es up and have a toast to me Moving on to better things but no-one gets to go for free Heating up with every line upgrading from these frozen streets I could've been told the power in adolescence was stressing over-perfection and wasn't seeing progression was second guessing myself and was blinded to all my blessings with ignorance in my mind had no time to ask any questions I swear I've always been hustling trying to take care of myself Always been hustling more than everybody else I swear I've always been hustling trying to prove it to myself I've always been, always been I swear I've always been hustling trying to take care of myself Always been hustling more than everybody else I swear I've always been hustling trying to prove it to myself I've always been, always been yeah
