Flight Line Grind

Lyrics

[Chorus] Still choose to ride through the struggle On the flight line, steel in my knuckles (yeah) Tryin to make up time I fumbled Tryin to get mine, tryin to get mine (uh, uh) Still choose to ride through the struggle On the flight line, eyes through the tunnel (skrrt) Tryin to make up time I juggled Tryin to get mine, tryin to get mine [Verse 1] Clock out, but the grind still ticking Boots on the tarmac, mind on a mission Late nights, frost on the breath I’m spitting Pay stubs thin, but the will thickening Radio crackle, I’m loading up weight Hands go numb in the dead runway Boss on my back, talk less, move crates Heart say “quit,” but I press on the same Missed some birthdays, missed some calls Momma say “rest,” I just press through the walls Every delay put a dent in my pride Still I climb back in, still I choose to ride (ride) [Chorus] Still choose to ride through the struggle On the flight line, steel in my knuckles (yeah) Tryin to make up time I fumbled Tryin to get mine, tryin to get mine (get mine) Still choose to ride through the struggle On the flight line, eyes through the tunnel (eyes up) Tryin to make up time I juggled Tryin to get mine, tryin to get mine [Verse 2] Sun come up, same vest, same badge Same back pain, same beat-up cab But I see goals when I scan that pad Numbers on paper that I never once had Homies fell off, got lost in the smoke I stayed tucked in my lane staying broke Now I’m stacking every hour like notes Every overtime shift, that’s hope in a coat Plane after plane, I’m chasing a raise Hungry in the soul, you can taste that ache If the world run late, then I run late too ‘Cause the time I lost, I’ma make that through [Chorus] Still choose to ride through the struggle On the flight line, steel in my knuckles (yeah) Tryin to make up time I fumbled Tryin to get mine, tryin to get mine (oh, I’m) Still choose to ride through the struggle On the flight line, eyes through the tunnel Tryin to make up time I juggled Tryin to get mine, tryin to get mine (get mine)
