Lyrics:

Yeah…

Same rivers.
Different time.

⸻

[Hook]

Grams should’ve been a producer
Different year, different future
Same two rivers in our veins
Same hustle in the brain

Grams should’ve been a producer
Different age, different shooter
If we both born right now
We’d be buildin’ beats somehow

⸻

[Verse 1]

She had rhythm in her walk
Timing in the way she talked
Kitchen table budgeting
Like she sequencing a track

Stretchin’ dollars like samples
Flip a meal from scraps
Turn nothin’ into somethin’
That’s a producer’s knack

Worked doubles, no applause
No plaques up on the wall
But the way she structured chaos
Man, that’s arrangement law

Understood tension and release
Knew when to push and ease
If life was a mixing board
She had levels mastered clean

⸻

[Hook]

Grams should’ve been a producer
Different year, different future
Same two rivers in our veins
Same hustle in the brain

Grams should’ve been a producer
Different age, different shooter
If we both born right now
We’d be buildin’ beats somehow

⸻

[Verse 2]

She didn’t have MPCs
Just factory shifts and keys
But she looped that sacrifice
Until it fed the family

Different time, different lane
Women couldn’t own the game
So she built behind the curtain
While the world misused her name

I hear her in my patience
I see her in my grind
That same stubborn discipline
Same fire in the spine

When I chop a soul sample
When I layer bass and drum
I ain’t just makin’ music
I’m echoing where I’m from

⸻

[Bridge]

Maybe genius ain’t about
Who gets seen or who gets crowned
Maybe it’s who holds it down
When the lights ain’t around

⸻

[Verse 3]

Now I’m here with Pro Tools
Plugins, beats and views
But the hunger still familiar
Same roots in my shoes

Different city, different stage
But the bloodline don’t change
If she had the tools I got
She’d be way ahead the game

So when they call me talented
Or say I found my sound
I just nod and think of her
And how she held it down

Same two rivers in our veins
Same pressure, different time
Grams should’ve been a producer —
I’m just finishin’ her rhyme

⸻

[Hook]

Grams should’ve been a producer
Different year, different future
Same two rivers in our veins
Same hustle in the brain

Grams should’ve been a producer
Different age, different shooter
If we both born right now
We’d be buildin’ beats somehow
