G
– R – I – T
Hey! You know me!
I
got GRIT, and GRIT don’t quit!
When
you look at me,
Tell
me what ya’ see.
G
– R – I – T
Hey! You know me!
I
got GRIT, and GRIT don’t quit!
It’s
time to spit
‘Dis
rhyme
And
open ‘da eyes of ‘da blind.
G
– R – I – T
Hey! You know me!
So,
G
– give it up for
R
– right thinkin’
I – I ain’t even blinkin’ cause ‘dis boat ain’t
eva’ sinkin’! I’m
T
– totally committed to success
And
purpose in my heart to be my very best!
I
got GRIT, and GRIT don’t quit!
Yeah,
I got GRIT, and GRIT don’t quit!
Are
you hearin’ me?
Ain’t
nothin’ but love stearin’ me.
I’m
dedicated
Cause
mediocre is overrated!
I
got a GRIT perspective
My
tolerance for doubt is defective
Life
is my education
And
I’m a part of a GRIT generation
‘Dat’s
why I’m hastenin’ my steps
And
givin’ no less than my very best
My
greatest aim
Ain’t
riches and fame
It’s becoming ‘da best me
I
can possibly be!
G
– R – I – T
Hey! You know me!
So,
G
– give it up for
R
– right thinkin’
I – I ain’t even blinkin’ cause ‘dis boat
ain’t eva’ sinkin’! I’m
T
– totally committed to success
And
purpose in my heart to be my very best!
I
got GRIT, and GRIT don’t quit!
Yeah! I got GRIT, and GRIT don’t quit!
I
must confide
I’m
not satisfied
With
followin’ ‘da crowd
Where
my unique fingerprint isn’t allowed
I
move to the beat of a different drum
Cause
I believe in ‘da power of one
One
person with GRIT
Can
throw a mean hit
Force
negativity to get
And
inspire an entire army to neva’ quit!
So,
tell me! Do you got GRIT?
Then
help me spit
‘Dis
rhyme
And
open ‘da eyes of ‘da blind.
G
– R – I – T!
Hey! You know me!

Hey! You know me!
I
got GRIT, and GRIT don’t quit!
