[Verse] Midnight grease on the griddle, steam in the air, Sweat on my neck, but Iâm breathing heavy, no fear. Copper coins ring, orders fly like fire, But my mind's on the stage, reaching higher. Serving eggs with a soul, fries with a beat, Every shift a step toward my dream street. The clock's a liar, says Iâm stuck in the grind, But Iâm building my empireâjust one more time. [Pre-Chorus] Yeah, the apronâs worn, but the flameâs still bright, Iâm the quiet storm under neon light. They see the kitchen, they donât see the crownâ This grindâs the fuel, Iâm about to be found. [Chorus] Iâm grinding on the line, but Iâm chasing the sky, Every burn on my hands is a line Iâll fly. From the diner to the mic, Iâm rising, Iâm real, This ainât just servingâthis is my wheel. Iâm building my empire on every shift, With a heart of iron and a dream thatâs still swift. Iâm grinding on the lineâwatch me rise, From the back of the house to the spotlightâs eyes. [Verse] The coffeeâs bitter, but my visionâs clean, Script in my head while I'm cleaning the screen. Tired eyes, but my soul's wide awake, Every night a verse, every breath a break. I trade the silence for the shout, Turn the clatter to a sound Iâve dreamed about. They say âStay low,â but Iâm drawing the map, With every fry I fry, Iâm stacking my trap. [Pre-Chorus] Yeah, the apronâs worn, but the flameâs still bright, Iâm the quiet storm under neon light. They see the kitchen, they donât see the crownâ This grindâs the fuel, Iâm about to be found. [Chorus] Iâm grinding on the line, but Iâm chasing the sky, Every burn on my hands is a line Iâll fly. From the diner to the mic, Iâm rising, Iâm real, This ainât just servingâthis is my wheel. Iâm building my empire on every shift, With a heart of iron and a dream thatâs still swift. Iâm grinding on the lineâwatch me rise, From the back of the house to the spotlightâs eyes. [Bridge] They donât know the words I write in the steam, The lyrics I whisper while I clean the dream. This grease-stained soulâs got a voice in the flame, And every orderâs a verse Iâm reclaiming. Iâm the chef of my fate, the king of my lane, The one who turned the grind to a chain of fame. From the floor to the crown, Iâm the name theyâll repeatâ Iâm the fire behind the plate, and Iâm real, Iâm beat. [Chorus] Iâm grinding on the line, but Iâm chasing the sky, Every burn on my hands is a line Iâll fly. From the diner to the mic, Iâm rising, Iâm real, This ainât just servingâthis is my wheel. Iâm building my empire on every shift, With a heart of iron and a dream thatâs still swift. Iâm grinding on the lineâwatch me rise, From the back of the house to the spotlightâs eyes. [Outro] Yeah, the grillâs still hot, but my soulâs on stage, Every shift an anthem, every turn a page. Iâm the voice in the kitchen, the light in the darkâ This is my grind, and this is my spark. Mic in hand, Iâm breaking the dawn, From the dinerâs low to where Iâm drawn. Iâm grinding. Iâm rising. Iâm free. Iâm the dreamâborn in the kitchen, meant to be.
