paroles de chanson Sho' Nuff (Pride) - MAL-THA-MND

I be having my days when I'm feeling lifted
Then out of the blue feel like the world's against me
Check my prescription cause not even I can see the vision
When indulged the ignorance got my goals on hold
Hold me back before a hurt this nigga
Working on my nerves
Normally not entertaining this shit
Try and keep my distance
But of all days you choose this one
Use the pen to try and write you out my system
But like viruses, you bugging and it's got me glitching
Like what's the issue? how I fix it?
Reminiscing on some old shit, got me throwed
Let me know when you finished, I let it go
You let it go with a quick one, bloody my nose
Now look where we end up
This ain't ever gon end huh?
This shit dumb

Just another vicious cycle, where my kin becomes my rival
Circle up gather round, grab your lenses and stand idle
While we tear each other down like broken buildings demolition
Representing broken people, fuck it all ain't tryna listen
Hold up

Sho Nuff, we show up and show out
Like what's up, we get loud cause we proud
If you down then I'm down
Now we down and we out
Ripped holes In my outfit
You down for the count
Hold up

Sho Nuff, we show up and show out
Like what's up, we get loud cause we proud
If you down then I'm down
Now we down and we out
Ripped holes In my outfit
You down for the count
Hold up

Fee fi fo fum, fuck ya feeling when you dealing with a giant
He might hold up, now it's feeling like it's David vs Goliath
The smallest man when he's Dealt his hand can truly understand that a house divided
Only hurt him, tuff only on surface
Carrie too much pride now you the beast of burden
Be the bigger person, overrated verbiage
Knock him to the ground, kick him while he's down
Screaming while he's hurting, you can take the crown
Show 'em what your worth is

Case closed when they drop the curtain
Was it pictured perfect?, white chalk outlines on curbs
Blue lights, paramedics fly
Lighting up the night while the mothers cry
When her baby dies over senseless violence

Just to gain respect, he gon take a life, do it for the set
Now he serving life, doing 25 only 25 all because he couldn't put his pride aside
Lack of guidance took him to the other side
Gang sign and gang ties got his hands tied, tuff luck on the inside

Just another vicious cycle
Pray for us we grip the Bible
Circle up, gather round while we fight for our survival
It's us against the world or it's us against ourselves
I could tell you how I feel but would you really care

Sho Nuff, we show up, and show out
Like what's up, we get loud cause we proud
If you down then I'm down
Now we down and we out
Ripped holes In my outfit
You down for the count
Hold up

Sho Nuff, we show up and show out
Like what's up, we get loud cause we proud
If you down then I'm down
Now we down and we out
Ripped holes In my outfit
You down for the count
Hold up

I plead the 5th
Don't know a name
I Drown in silence
Neck deep in pain
Can't close my eyes
Escape the (Violence)
If you cross a pirate
You walk the plank

Then we steady going through the same old things
All we do is hope, but shit don't change
Then they sell us hope full of diamond chains
And with that same rope we left to hang
Then all we got is ourselves to blame
We bought the lies
Promised incentives
We bring the bars, then serve the sentence
With every line
We dug the ditches
High off pride, we bare to witness
We glorified, so idealistic
Paid the piper, baptized in mischief
Toxic women, claim he pimping with no pot to piss in,
Manipulate him now he's slapping Niggas acting funny,
Laughing at you instead of laughing with you
Should've played a paster, now she passing judgment claiming she don't need ya
Princes turn into peasants
Hope you learned your lesson before you meet the reaper
Wait too long and then you're only digging deeper
Ask repentance Hoping god will listen but you gotta listen for the signs to reach you
Pain in misery, a double feature
Past and present only sets the future
Haunting dreams like it's Freddy Krueger
But y'all ain't listening so let's begin again and pay attention or it slips right through you

Pay attention for it slip right through you

But y'all ain't listening so let's begin again and pay attention or it slips right through you

Sho Nuff, we show up and show out
Like what's up, we get loud cause we proud
If you down then I'm down
Now we down and we out
Ripped holes In my outfit
You down for the count
Hol up

Sho Nuff, we show up and show out
Like what's up, we get loud cause we proud
If you down then I'm down
Now we down and we out
Ripped holes In my outfit
You down for the count
Hold up
