Refrain

Grind, future, a beautiful star
Grind, future, a beautiful star
Grind, future, a beautiful star
Grind, future, a beautiful star

Verse 1

Laundromat’s empty, must be my lucky day
It’s about time, I said bye-bye to this crud
Who is it? Who’s whispering in my head
The greedy voices keep singing, begging for more

Pre-Chorus

I just want to be satisfied
Doing the bare minimum
I want to grab that heart of yours with my bare hands

Chorus

Let’s fill it up with “happy,” until we rest in peace
That glimpse of hell isn’t so bad
Scatter it with love
I love you, please humiliate me
Rob me of my dignity and laugh my honey
Grind, future, a bеautiful star
Grind, future, a beautiful star
Grind, future, a bеautiful star
I think my screw’s coming loose

Refrain

Striving, future, a beautiful star
Striving, future, a beautiful star
Striving, future, a beautiful star
Striving, future, a beautiful star

Verse 2

4443, another opportunity lost
I’ve been so hungry to the core, I could vomit
“Rainy days never stay?” Hand over your umbrella
Give me all of it, I want it all
The more I crave, an empty void consumes me

Bridge

I just want to be satisfied
Doing the bare minimum
I want to sabotage it all
Wipe it out clean
Even that heart of yours

Chorus

Let’s fill it up with luck, go until we rest in peace
A heaven only for the righteous? That’s no way to live
I love you, please humiliate me
Rob me of my dignity and laugh, my honey
Grind, future, a beautiful star
Grind, future, a beautiful star
Grind, future, a beautiful star
I think my screw’s coming loose

Post-Chorus

Happy, lucky
How are you all?
Upright and noble?
That’s boring
Happy, lucky
Hello there, baby, so sweet
Grind, future, a beautiful star
Grind, future, a beautiful star
Grind, future, a beautiful star
I’m getting a kick out of it

Refrain

Grind, future, a beautiful star
Grind, future, a beautiful star
Grind, future, a beautiful star
Grind, future, a beautiful star
(Ha, ha, ha, ha)
