Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Never straight and narrow
I won't keep in time
Tend to bend the arrow out of the line
Been inclined to wander
Off the beaten track
That's where there's thunder and the wind shouts back
[Verse 2]
Grinder
Looking for meat
Grinder
Wants you to eat
[Verse 3]
Got no use for routine
I shiver at the thought
Open skies are my scene, this boy won't get caught
Refuse to bait the man trap
Been led to set the snare
I love to have my sight capped everywhere
[Verse 4]
Grinder
Looking for meat
Grinder
Wants you to eat
[Verse 5]
I have my licence
It came with birth
For self reliance of this earth
You take the bullet
On which my name
Was etched to file me in your game
[Verse 6]
Day of independence
Stamped us like a brand
Round the necks of millions to the land
As the mighty eagle
I need room to breath
Witness from the treadmill I take my leave
[Verse 7]
Grinder
Looking for meat
Grinder
Wants you to eat
[Verse 8]
Grinder
Looking for meat
Grinder
Wants you to eat
[Verse 9]
Grinder
