Tee Grizzley is laying it all bare on Street Psalms, his rawest dispatch from the front lines yet, dropping November 14, 2025, through 300 Entertainment, and Trials and Tribulations cuts deep as that mid-album gut check, where the scars turn into sermons you can’t look away from.
Grizzley’s spent years mapping Detroit’s rough edges in his music, turning jail stories and street losses into beats that hit like warnings. This track feels like the heart of that, a solo ride through the ups and downs that shaped him—betrayal from close ones, grinding through the pain, finding faith in the fallout. He built it on those heavy 808s and sparse piano keys that let his voice carry the weight, straight trap with a gospel undercurrent that echoes the album’s whole vibe.
It’s him reflecting on the tests that broke him down but built him back, no features needed, just that urgent flow spitting truth like “real ones gone relate, lost ones gone wake up,” straight from the IG caption he dropped with the tracklist. You can hear the evolution in his delivery, less rage, more resolve, like he’s preaching from the pulpit of his own life.
Street Psalms isn’t messing around—it’s a 20-track testament to the trenches, framed as the gospel for anyone still navigating the chaos. Kicks off strong with In My Life setting the reflective tone, rolls through bangers like Seen Enough with Polo G adding that cross-town fire, and hits peaks on Make Em See before diving into these deeper confessions. Trials and Tribulations lands around track 12, bridging the flexes with the feels, right before Made It That Way flips to triumph. The whole thing clocks about an hour of no-skip storytelling, pulling in producers who keep it gritty but cinematic.
Grizzley’s hitting this stride where he’s not just surviving the game anymore; he’s schooling it. Fresh off Forever My Moment earlier this year, which packed arenas and reminded everyone why Detroit runs through his veins, Street Psalms feels like the payoff—him as elder statesman, turning personal psalms into anthems for the next wave. It’s growth you can feel, from the kid who dropped First Day Out to the voice owning his chapters without apology.

Lyrics of Trials and Tribulations by Tee Grizzley
[Intro]
(I Can’t Make You Say) I Do
Okay (I Can’t Make You Say)
[Verse 1]
Growing Up, I Looked Up To Them Niggas That Was Rocking Ice
I Got It, Now I Barely Wear It, Don’t Believe The Hype
I Got To Where I Wanted, Then Saw It Was Greater Heights
No Hibachi, Chopsticks To Leave You Cooked Like Steak And Rice (Fuck)
Trials And Tribulations, That Shit Come With Life
I Saw A Nigga Main Bitch Get Hit, My Heart On Ice
The Only People That Could Come Between Us Is You And I
You Did Some Weird Shit And Fucked The Love Up, Can’t Make It Right
[Chorus]
Told Bronem, “Be On Point Whenever You Go Outside”
To Find Some Real Shit Is Rare In 2025
Been Through Some Shit, But Can’t Complain ’cause I’m Still Alive
I Know I Ask For A Lot, But Can You Hear Me, God? (God, I)
That Street Shit So Watered Down, They Need To Cut It Out
These Niggas Walkin’ In The Court, Pointin’ They Brothers Out
They Slow To Run A Bag Up, But Quick To Run They Mouth
Was Flying When You Called, I’ma Hit You When I’m Touchin’ Down
I Just Resigned My Deal For Some Crazy Shit
I Hate How Money Create Distance In Relationships
I Can’t Fumble No Real Bitch For No Lil’ Basic Bitch
If I Pass A Rock And You Don’t Shoot, That’s Still A Great Assist (I Still Helped)
[Bridge]
It’s Me (Me)
I Still Helped (It’s Me, Nigga)
Even If You Ain’t Shoot, It’s Me, Nigga
I Did My Part, You See What I’m Saying?
Tg, Nigga (Tg, Nigga)
Let’s Get It, Uh
[Verse 2]
Never Let My Dog Starve While I Ate In His Face
Grind Day And Night, I Ain’t Rich Enough For A Break
Can’t Believe I Made It Out, How I Was Raised Was A Shame
Brodie On Parole, He Tote K’s Anyway
When You Elevating, They Gon’ Say That You Changed
Can’t Say That They Lying, Though, You Can’t Stay The Same
Get Up Out The Hood, Why You Playing With The Grave?
Always Thought The Goal Was To Get Up Out The Way
[Chorus]
I Told Bronem, “Be On Point Whenever You Go Outside”
To Find Some Real Shit Is Rare In 2025
Been Through Some Shit, But Can’t Complain ’cause I’m Still Alive
I Know I Ask For A Lot, But Can You Hear Me, God?
That Street Shit So Watered Down, They Need To Cut It Out
These Niggas Walkin’ In The Court, Pointin’ They Brothers Out
They Slow To Run A Bag Up, But Quick To Run They Mouth
Was Flying When You Called, I’ma Hit You When I’m Touchin’ Down
[Outro]
I’ma Hit You When I’m Touchin’ Down
