lirik lagu napoleon da legend - pride
[napoleon da legend verse]
defy gravity
life a try to bring you down savagely
walking with a battery pack on my back cavity
and bad habits, trying to combat depravity
graduated from the “i don’t give fuck” academy
to build somethin better for myself
met up with top shelf connections
never selling myself short
from out the north east teleported across seas
took some losses had to deal with some divorce fees
like father like son see how the odds spun
we all trying to live from this but i just got the job done
more than the pages i write, it’s a way of life
had to sacrifice for what i wanted had to pay the price
for a slice of the market share they don’t be playing honest fair
had to learn to think quicker slicker than e honda’s hair
the game is cold but i’m bolder
holding the burden now my shoulder hurting
projecting myself as an older person
wrinkled up without a single fuck
still saying “fuck the world” with my middle fingers up
life can a slut and then you die got love nas and az
i analyzed the jewels and now i pay homage
half~a~mil spoke to me during a dream
told me never forget to stay in tune with your inner being
took heed to the information
like the books i read and went harder
than climbing up the stairs with some crooked knees
[napoleon da legend chorus]
i just wanna do something i’m proud about
and if i die tomorrow don’t be sad
i did what i did with what i had
i just wanna do something i’m proud about
and if i die tomorrow don’t be sad
i did what i did with what i had
[napoleon da legend verse]
not a prisoner of perfect walking on this earth surface
for what it’s worth did it even if i felt nervous
wanna cop nice things i wanna own a home
traveling across the globe cause my music known
stay respectful the values of a wise man
level headed despite getting letters from wild fans
sometimes i think of blacastan and sean p
where they at?
wonder when you gone what you gone see
my father was a fan of soul and r&b
now we flip the same samples and turn em to hard beats
it’s a constant cycle a friend can become a rival
we seen with biggie and pac it turned homicidal
constantly chasing my childhood dream
in the music aisle copping albums i would fiend
and fantasizing about the lifestyle and scene
violence and success thin line like a balance beam
we toe the line precisely always a light sleeper
paranoid that failure might creep up like the reaper
i ain’t choose this body i just live in it
you can hate me but that won’t change how i bringing it
i’m a shine for nobody my light, i’m a dimming it
and i’m a kill it on any production indiscriminate
take it to the infinite for x amount of time
some may call it stubbornness but i just call it pride
[napoleon da legend chorus]
i just wanna do something i’m proud about
and if i die tomorrow don’t be sad
i did what i did with what i had
i just wanna do something i’m proud about
and if i die tomorrow don’t be sad
i did what i did with what i had
