J.Cole, Lil Baby - p r i d e . i s . t h e . d e v i l lyrics

Uh

Pride is the Devil think it got a hold on me
Pride is the Devil it left so many RIP
Pride is the Devil think it got a hold on me
Pride is the Devil, yeah, uh

Terrified,  paranoid
 I'll put you over everything to
Fill the void and when you’re gone
Will I have anything or will
I be destroyed? Uh terrified, paranoid
I'll put you over everything to fill the void
And when you're gone
Will I have anything or will
I be destroyed? Yеah

Bright lights pass me in the city
It’s emеrgency i'm thankful 'cause I made
It past my thirties, no one murdered me
Still remember vividly the nigga that
Pulled a gun on me i'm petrified
But moving like I got no sense of urgency
Pride make a nigga act way
Harder than he really be
Pride hide the shame when city
Cut off all utilities pride hide the pain of
Growing up inhaling poverty
Pride make a nigga feel a
Way that you unfollowed me
Make a nigga flash a thousand
Like he hit the lottery
Make a baby mama make shit
Harder than it gotta be
Make you have to take the bitch
To court to see your prodigy
Make you have to use your last
Resort and pull a robbery
Pride be the reason for the family dichotomy
Got uncles and some aunties that's
Too proud to give apologies
Slowly realizing what the root of
All my problems be
It got me feeling different when somebody
Say they proud of me

Pride is the Devil, uh
I think it got a hold on me
Pride is the Devil, uh it left so many RIP
Pride is the Devil
I think it got a hold on me
Pride is the Devil, uh, yeah

Terrified, paranoid
I'll put you over everything to fill the void
And when you're gone
Will I have anything or will
I be destroyed? Uh terrified, paranoid
I'll put you over everything to fill the void
And when you’re gone
Will I have anything or will
I be destroyed? yeah

Too much money to count, what’s the amount?
Check never bounce
I gotta pay a nigga to add it up
Then pay somebody to make
Sure whatever amount
He say he can back it up
Got racks on racks, I'm rackin’ up
Stackin' up you're reachin', I’m actin' up

Break it down, weigh it up, now bag it up
Making five a month, that's regular
Nigga playing with us, that's a negative
Go back to start, that's never
I'm a boss, my closet leather
Ain't no off days on my schedule
Long as I live, we live forever
Told my twin this shit get better
These niggas done slipped, let me ahead 'em
Got my feet up
I paid silly bands to have sex on the jet
I don't need 'em, that shit in the past
I'm feelin' like what's next
Got my speed up, foot all on the gas
This not a C8 'Vette
I can beat 'em, I believe in me
Just tell me what's the bet
All my pride gone
Had to lose it all then I got rich
I own five homes
Glad some of this shit starting to make sense
I'm staying hella focused and I
Can't forget the bigger picture
I can't even hold you, I didn't have shit
I won't forget it will I be destroyed?
Come to me with everything
It's starting to get annoying
I'm addicted to promethazine
It's crazy, yeah, i know it
All this money coming in
It drive me crazy not to show it
I'll be crazy if I blow it

Pride is the Devil, uh
I think it got a hold on me
Pride is the Devil, uh
And it left so many RIP pride is the Devil
I think it got a hold on me
Pride is the Devil, uh
