(Songwriters: Ace Hood, Sarkodie)
That’s why I wake up every morning
I grind, sun up and sun down
Wake up knowing that people expect
Me to lead ’em to a win
When times is tough they look at me for answers
Hoping I can lift ’em off from
Their fears and progress
So I grind, sunday to monday
Cos they ain’t no role models
They ain’t no true leaders left
So it’s up to me to make sure the world
Knows that I’m that new guy
I’m that new inspiration
Verse
I’m the new guy
I made it from the slums back in africa
Where most of my niggas committed suicide
Every story got a two-side
T-shirt tryna make it to the suit and tie
You know a nigga gotta survive, it’s do or die
We gotta make it and it’s really up to you and I
Started from the bottom
Nigga really did a lot
So tell me who am I?
Obi su fr ne nyame na boys ngyina h
Nti ye a mo ma m’asum ndwo
Me na me pe m’anim ak
M’apromise me fans s’kanea
Na a ewe m’akyi n’asi
Sinea me ne daa no T.B Joshua y
Ai ne synagogue
M’arappe ama me jacket akyi aye duudu
n’akyi n’afe
Afam awo, nan so still a me twan
Ama nsuo n’at
Rappers see movie
in me nowadays
Shoutouts to senavoe
Rap no firi m’anum, pra gagaga
Se tea bor
Freh M’aspeedie flow no from kilo to tonnes
Rap firi
America but it truly
Belongs
To the blacks
So I’m free to curse on a song
Fuck around with me
na de spanner
Be shockin your 2 lungs
when dy say rap nye den
We started from 97
Eti da bi a anadwo 11
Me ne m’adamfo bi kevin
Me no no we be
disturbing the neighbourhood
Tema community 9
Still a me me
u me hood no heaven
Rap no vim ne wom
Start me track ne mmom
Checking me stamp ne bom
Dropping me sark no nnwom
Na set me trap no biom
Obidi style nni dwom
Dawge na time nni krom.. Uhn
24/7 yea de me rap no bi akutia
I no bore cos it comes with it
Came from the ghetto, deeping
Na mo b kyer me
Me yea pabene, my people dey call me
Obidi ponbidi
Chorus
That’s why I wake up every morning
I grind, sun up and sun down
Wake up knowing that people expect
Me to lead ’em to a win
When times is tough they look at me for answers
Hoping I can lift ’em off from
Their fears and progress
So I grind, sunday to monday
I’m that new guy
Verse
The beast of the south,
On my worstest behaviour
Don’t make me angrier
Couple shots all in your dome
And that turn your shit into a stadium
Dr. Martin luther king
I don had a dream nigga
20 bitches in my bed naked
counting cheese nigga
Black man in a fucking beamer
Got a tip her toeing
Like a ballerina
Diamonds water water like aquafina
Serving bitches like the new subpoena
Only peace is on my cuban chain
Sell ya soul and get rebirth to fame
Bought some waters with a broad
Damaging the stores, damn, not a thing change
Protesters is another lesson
Prison cells are getting too congested
Righteous living, fuck a suicide
New guys wearing suit and ties
Bossing up instead of toting 9’z
Shooting guys, prison time
Stacking money, build an enterprise
Be the one who niggas idolize
Counting money till my palms hurt
I remember they was way worse
Momma praying everyday in church
Being broke and every second hurts
Tryna shine boy you gotta grind
And just wait in line
That’s just how it works
Good in the hood with my street tithes
I can’t say the same for you new guys
Chorus
That’s why I wake up every morning
I grind, sun up and sun down
Wake up knowing that people expect
Me to lead ’em to a win
When times is tough they look at me for answers
Hoping I can lift ’em off from
Their fears and progress
So I grind, sunday to monday
Cos I’m that new guy
Ace
Let me take you to africa
My people they love you
I came here, you showed me some love
And I promise to build you a statue, uhn
Ace hood – akwaaba
And sark is a hell of a nation
My signee wo din wey kumasi, m’apem so
Nye adey a woba confirmation
Uhn sark medaase
I’m the new pac in the projects
Welcome sarkodie, the united states
Where they selling narcotics
It’s a pleasure my nigga
Now let’s go and get the money bags
Haters hating, they will never last
Came too far and we ain’t looking back
That’s why I wake up every morning
I grind, sun up and sun down
Wake up knowing that people expect
Me to lead ’em to a win
When times is tough they look at me for answers
Hoping I can lift ’em off from
Their fears and progress
So I grind, sunday to monday
Cos I’m that new guy
