grind across time

letter to my 13 year old self Yo, youngin', listen up, I got some words to say, Life's a hustle, but you gotta find your own way, Dream big, don’t let 'em dim your shine, Keep your head up high, never fall in line. Every setback’s just a setup for a comeback, Stay true to yourself, don’t ever lose track, Friends come and go, but loyalty's rare, Choose your circle wisely, show 'em you care. Stay hungry, keep grindin', don’t fear the grind, Success ain't handed, you gotta take what's mine, Invest in your mind, knowledge is the key, One day you'll look back and see who you could be. So when they doubt you, just let ‘em hate, You’re destined for greatness, it’s never too late, Keep that fire burnin’, let it fuel your soul, At 13, you’re a king, now go take control. Yo, young king, listen close, I got wisdom to share, Life's a hustle, don't you ever show fear, Thirteen years deep, but the world ain't a game, Stay true to your dreams, let ‘em know your name. See the struggles, they’ll come, but you gotta rise, Learn from the pain, keep your head to the skies, Friends come and go, but loyalty's rare, Keep your circle tight, real ones always care. Don’t let ‘em define you, break free from the mold, Your story's unfolding, it’s destined to be bold, Education’s your weapon, knowledge is power, Stand tall in the storm, bloom like a flower. Embrace every challenge, don’t run from the grind, The road may be rough, but greatness you’ll find, So write your own script, let 'em see your light, This letter's a promise, you’ll be ready to fight.
