Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Waking up before the sun's embrace,
Life’s a marathon, not just a race,
Eyes heavy but my dreams are light,
Juggling bills, trying to make it right.
Coffee’s brewing, dark and thick,
Mind’s on loop, the clock ticks quick.
Off to work, the daily grind,
Searching for the peace I seldom find.
Paycheck to paycheck, it’s a bind,
But for my family, I’m inclined,
To push through the struggle, redefine,
The meaning of life in these hard times.
(Chorus)
Day by day, I’m walking a line,
Trying to shine, in the grind through time.
For the love, for the family mine,
In this life, it’s the climb that defines.
(Verse 2)
Lunch break’s short, but the day is long,
Dreams are free, but reality’s strong.
Bills on my mind, the rent’s overdue,
The life of a millennial, nothing new.
Swipe the card, debt climbs higher,
Ignite the night with a heart of fire.
Hard work’s my only attire,
Burning on, never tire.
Grit and grind, through the mire,
For my kin, I aspire,
To build a life, a little empire,
With love and warmth, forever inspire.
[Instrumental breakdown]
(Chorus)
Day by day, I’m walking a line,
Trying to shine, in the grind through time.
For the love, for the family mine,
In this life, it’s the climb that defines.
(Verse 3)
Evening falls, home at last,
Family’s embrace, forget the past.
Dinner’s warm, laughter’s shared,
In these moments, souls are bared.
The grind is tough, but love’s reward,
In their eyes, I’m not ignored.
Tomorrow’s worries, let them come,
For tonight, we’re united, one.
(Chorus)
Day by day, I’m walking a line,
Trying to shine, in the grind through time.
For the love, for the family mine,
In this life, it’s the climb that defines.
(Outro)
As the stars take the night’s prime,
Reflecting on this grind through time.
The struggles shape, but won’t confine,
In the end, it’s love that’ll shine.
oh yeah. in the end it's the love, it's the love
(outro verse)
Through the darkness, through the pain,
Love's the sunshine after rain.
It's the beacon in the night,
Guiding us with its gentle light.
In this life, where we carve our names,
Amidst the losses, wins, and games,
Let it be said, when our time is done,
It was love that overcame, love that won.
