(Intro)
(Beat drops with a smooth bassline and catchy drum pattern)
(Verse 1)
Hey John, where you at, what you doin’ these days?
We used to kick it hard, now you’re lost in a haze,
Got the whole crew wonderin’ where you disappeared,
Is it the office grind, or did you switch up gears?
(Pre-Chorus)
We used to hit the town, now you’re MIA,
Tell me where you’re grindin’, John, I gotta know today,
Are you workin’ nine-to-five, or is it somethin’ more?
Drop the deets, my friend, what’s the hustle you adore?
(Chorus)
Where you grindin’, John? Where’s your 9 to 5?
Tell me what you’re doin’, how you stayin’ alive,
Are you stackin’ paper, or just chillin’ for fun?
Where you grindin’, John? The journey’s just begun.
(Verse 2)
I remember back when we were cruisin’ the block,
Now you’re suit and tie, while I’m still in the rock,
Tell me if you’re movin’ up or just keeping it low,
Is it the corporate life or another kind of show?
(Pre-Chorus)
We used to hit the clubs, now you’re working hard,
Tell me where you’re grindin’, John, don’t leave me scarred,
Are you climbing up the ladder, or is it a side hustle?
Give me the 411, man, I’m itching for the muscle.
(Chorus)
Where you grindin’, John? Where’s your 9 to 5?
Tell me what you’re doin’, how you stayin’ alive,
Are you stackin’ paper, or just chillin’ for fun?
Where you grindin’, John? The journey’s just begun.
(Bridge)
From the late-night grind to the high-rise views,
Whatever path you’re on, man, you know we choose,
To support you in the hustle, through the ups and downs,
From the corner store dreams to the city crowns.
(Breakdown)
Yeah, where you at, John? It’s been a minute,
I’m curious ‘bout your moves, can you come and spin it?
From the office to the street, or wherever you be,
Just let us in the loop, man, set the story free.
(Chorus)
Where you grindin’, John? Where’s your 9 to 5?
Tell me what you’re doin’, how you stayin’ alive,
Are you stackin’ paper, or just chillin’ for fun?
Where you grindin’, John? The journey’s just begun.
(Outro)
So whatever you’re doin’, John, just keep it real,
In the grind or the chill, it’s all about the feel,
Wherever life takes you, let’s raise a toast,
To the hustle and the flow, and the friends we love the most.
(Beat fades out with a smooth instrumental finish)
