This song is dedicated to all the up an coming rappers

Singers hustlers actors whatever you may be remember

Without no struggle you get no progress

So keep grinding keep on mashing an get yours

You're nothing far from coming up keep on

Money's just a touch away keep on

So keep on grinding don't give it up keep on

There'll always be another day keep on

An now I'm sitting at the pad teary eyed an depressed

Starving an suffering from mental stress

Now a true sinner to the game a beginner

But hard to feel like a winner when you eat spreads for dinner

Hit the streets late night in the corner star mission

On the two eleven mission just to pay tuition

For my kids I got to grind an develop street savvy

Serving stress 'cause I just ain't got enough to cop cave

But I can't stop I won't stop till I got it made

Either build my clientele get a job or learn a trade

Like hip hop an make enough to live good forever

So I learned to write rhymes an get my metaphors together

Then I joined a rap crew with the homies on my street

Selling underground tapes out the local swap meet

Getting tighter on the mic as I worked day to day

So now I lay down at night an I hear voices say Mack

You're nothing far from coming up keep on

Money's just a touch away keep on

So keep on grinding don't give it up keep on

There'll always be another day keep on

Now I'm new to the scene

H as in Hard N as in Nympho

So like EPMD could you please listen to my Demo

I left the local crew felt like I was the man

In popular demand an'now ready for sound scan

So I searched for a deal with no luck I kept rapping

Felt like it would take a miracle to make it all happen

Marble said it was a test Mack don't do nutting wrong

Just have faith in god an'keep your hustle going strong

Stay hoping keep writing don't quit you're too close

Remember good things come to those who want it most

So I never left the house without my rap book

Thought I found a new crew but eventually got shook

First they said I was cool but then started to doubt me

Put me on the backburner an just forgot all about me

Partner said I wasn't fresh an sent me on my way you know what

As I was leaving I could hear voices say Mack

You're nothin'far from coming up keep on

Money's just a touch away keep on

So keep on grinding don't give it up keep on

There'll always be another day keep on

Now the tables turned but I remember they used to clown me

The hard work paid off an'luck finally found me

So call every publication billboard an'the editor

An'tell 'em Mack's being signed by dude working on the predator

I got the Midas touch now everything be the bomb

Hooked up with the don now made a few million

I don't bang I write the good rhymes you know about mines

Man I'm the tightest MC ice cube ever signed

Now if it ain't the radio it's a video shoot

Living life in the limelight with a bank full of loot

Now my crew is solid shook the haters an'the leeches

Running full court at my house with our girls on the beaches

Plus the violence is ceased no more bi coastal beef

'Cause now I get down with the north south an'the east

I reminisce on hard times seem like yesterday

But now hoo banging is official an

I remember they used to say Mack

You're nothing far from coming up keep on

Money's just a touch away keep on

So keep on grinding don't give it up keep on

There'll always be another day keep on

Money's just a touch just a simple touch

Money's just a touch away

Money's just a touch just a simple touch
