The Story Behind the Song
Alina spent nearly a decade in the corporate world - climbing the ladder, leading campaigns, and collecting titles. But deep down, she knew she was meant for something more personal, something bold. She dreamed of creating a cozy, creative space where people could connect over great coffee and good vibes.
So she took the leap.
She walked away from the safety of her 9-to-5 and opened Rise & Grind, her own boutique coffee shop. She painted the walls herself, curated the menu with love, and poured her whole heart into every detail - from the first bean she brewed to the first customer she welcomed through the door.
Now, with the lights on and the espresso flowing, Alina is living her dream - one latte, one early morning, one bold move at a time.
This song was written to celebrate that courage. “Rise & Grind” is her anthem.

Lyrics
She walked out with her head held high
Left the desk, left the 9 to 5
Tired of waiting for a green light
So she made her own and hit ignite
Took a dream and rolled up her sleeves
Turned quiet plans into bold belief
From spreadsheets to steam wands, she drew the line
Now she's brewing courage one cup at a time
They all said, “Play it safe”
But safe don’t set your soul ablaze
So rise, rise, rise — and grind
Built a dream she could finally call mine
From the ground up, with fire inside
Turned “someday” into “watch me shine”
Rise & Grind, now that’s the sign
Of a heart that won’t fall back in line
She took the leap, and now she flies
Rise, rise, rise — and grind
Sign on the door says “Open at dawn”
But her light’s been burning all along
She’s not just pouring coffee, she’s pouring pride
With every cup, her power’s amplified
She made it real, she made it hers
With painted walls and dreamer’s words
Didn’t wait for life to draw the line
She grabbed the chalk and redesigned
They all said, “That’s too much”
But too much was never enough
Rise, rise, rise — and grind
Built a dream she could finally call mine
From the ground up, with fire inside
Turned “someday” into “watch me shine”
Rise & Grind, now that’s the sign
Of a heart that won’t fall back in line
She took the leap, and now she flies
Rise, rise, rise — and grind
She bet on hope, bet on heart
Didn’t wait — she played her part
Now there’s magic in the life she leads
And a story in the steam
Rise, rise, rise — and grind
Pushed the limits and redefined
No more maybe, no more fear
She’s building something real right here
Rise & Grind, now that’s the vibe
Of a fire that couldn’t be denied
She took the leap, and now she flies
Rise, rise, rise — and grind
