Ransom - Pride lyrics

Where was you niggas when I was under?
(Where?) it's hard to be peaceful and
Civil in spite of hunger (Let's go)
Before you make a bad call, nigga
Don't dial the number
I'm tryna be the adult that I
Needed when I was younger (Woo)
I told my mom dukes I
Forgive her for bein' absent
(I forgive you, Mama)
Remember all my friends made fun
Of her 'cause her accent? (I remember)
Never understood the importance of
What a dad meant
'Cause Mama never spent them couple
Checks that he last sent (Damn)
Far as that shit, it's past-tense
(Past-tense) i changed for the money
'cause I never had cents
Almost seen the pearly gates when
I hopped my last fence (Uh, huh)
Now I'm over 38 and wonder
Where the cash went you talk about coke
Never sold a slab of the raw
Stop askin' for the ball with
Zero passion to score (C'mon)
You criticize rap
But you never crafted a bar
That's like talkin' 'bout sex
But you can't unfasten a bra
This shit like crashin' a car (Skrr)
Collision course with your vision lost (yeah)
You could die for nothin'
But your livin' cost
You think the decision's yours? (Really?)
No remorse in the sinner's core (Nah)
It's cold when they lock them prison doors
(Ah) he froze when I shot, forgive him, Lord
(Forgive him) bullet holes in every car
That I've driven off
Regardless, I been a boss
Was robbin' and whippin' raw (Was robbin')
Kept them jars in the kitchen drawers
(For real) with revolvers and tinted cars
Leave a nigga slumped back, the gun strap
Point at your cranium like a dunce cap
Standup niggas get hunched back (Blat)
And I don't really think you want that
I brought the lil' pump back
I snuck it on stage
How you gon' trump that? (Haha)
A different world, what a grimy time
I don't simulate, I play the
Game but the slightest, put up the 99
(What's in the game?)
It's only right that I finally
Shine, take it in, line-to-line
And now that I'm eatin'
I'm gon' wine and dine (Let's see)
I speak words that'll scar you
If it doesn't evolve you
It should never involve you (Nah)
I'm too clever to argue
(Facts) , I don't really speak much
Vision like Cole Sear
I'm just tryna get you to see stuff
(I see dead people) if you playin' games
The shotty liftin' your cleats up (Bluh)
If you namin' names
You ain't nobody that we trust (Nah)
If your claim to fame is
Gettin' outta police cuffs (Faggot)
You should save the pain
Consider givin' these streets up
Keep up (Keep up)
I'm Dr sebi mixed with Machiavelli
Pac and Reggie noble soldiers
Behold a flow as vulgar as Akinyele's
(Put it in your mouth)
I'm like the Lakers when the drop confetti
(Word) a tripod to keep the chopper steady
Whenever the stock is heavy
Berettas and Koch-a semis (Br-r ra)
Whenever rain appear (yeah)
A man'll always be judged on
How he handles fear (Facts)
It's clear I'm over your heads
Just like a chandelier fans'll cheer
Fuck up the game over the span of years

Shit is too real, man
I'm like the Godfather to this shit, man
Psh, shit is glorious, man it's effortless
Niggas can't fuck with me, man
