[Jelly Roll, Struggle Jennings - Proud lyrics]
Yeah when the moment comes you gotta own it
Waylon and Willie, Struggle
I'm Paul the apostle, this is my Romans
I notice the road is
Condolence to my opponents
Foam at the mouth, I starve for the moment
Combin' through the engine seen
All the broken components
Never say die my slogan
Hopin' it's not over
Atonement from my wrong streets is
Cold time is frozen
Poet of the broken, chosen by an omen
Fathered from poverty but a
Shark in this ocean
They was drinkin' the Kool Aid
I concocted a potion
Emotions from emotion discovered
There's no devotion
Home in the mornin' hunger pains
No bitchin' moanin'
I've been waitin' for this moment
Now I'm gonna own it
I just hope I made my mama proud
I hope that Mondo's smilin'
When he's lookin' down
And I remember when there was no one around
No one was to be found
And I was on the ground
We all know when you're ballin'
That everybody's by your side
Though when you're fallin' so many
People run and hide
Are you really down to ride
When you know someone will die
Are you still a friend of mine
When our life is on the line on the line
When our life is on the line
Know the streets gonna slow you down
People in the streets are the go and wild
You don't really understand me
If you ain't from a place no one smile
Man it's so hard for me to take you
Feel it in my bones and I can't shake it
You might not understand my reasonin'
If you ain't from a place
Where no one makes it (Makes it)
And I swear I feel your pain
I know where you comin' from
I went to war with the
Same demons you runnin' from
I know when the money comes
(That's when the problems grow)
Even if it's a one and done
(I hope you reap all you sow)
Met a beetle on the moon
He told me about my future
He said some stars are fallin'
And he said some stars are shootin'
Pay attention to the universe and
You'll see it's so translucent
With faith the size of a mustard seed find
A mountain and you can move it i can do it
I just hope I made my mama proud
I hope that Mondo's smilin'
When he's lookin' down
And I remember when there was no one around
No one was to be found
And I was on the ground
We all know when you're ballin'
That everybody's by your side
Though when you're fallin' so many
People run and hide
Are you really down to ride
When you know someone will die
Are you still a friend of mine
When our life is on the line on the line
When our life is on the line
Uh, I'm James the Apostle
First to be martyred
My freedom was bartered, taken not borrowed
The pain and the sorrow
So I pray for tomorrow
I live for the moment
Never feel what'll follow
A liter a minute, I fought in the field
Brought 'em out the valley
So we stood on the hill
I stood on my heels, enemies on the ground
Screamin' at the clouds
I hope that you're proud
I just hope I made my mama proud
I hope that Mondo's smilin'
When he's lookin' down
And I remember when there was no one around
No one was to be found
And I was on the ground
We all know when you're ballin'
That everybody's by your side
Though when you're fallin' so many
People run and hide
Are you really down to ride
When you know someone will die
Are you still a friend of mine
When our life is on the line on the line
Waylon and Willie, Struggle
