Proud

[Verse 1]
From coffee shops to arenas in the blink of an eye
Seems like yesterday i would try to tell me friends that I was hot
I told my crew that I would be in the paper
Went from the paper to the news
And just sometime later
I'm in another country and the whole crowd singing my words
It's crazy God let me reach from the hood to the burbs
I gotta put you in the center like you Cartwright
Cause it don’t mean a thing if I don’t got my heart right
Grown man things but I still ain't on my own
Youngin you ain't a grown man just cause you paying for your phone
A wise man learn from another mans mistakes
A fool just tries to learn on his own I'm yelling Lord take me home
To that promise land you promised me
I ain't always listen to my pops but he proud of me
Yeah You the truest of the friends
And I promise in the end

[Chorus]
I'ma make you proud
I promise I'ma make you proud
I promise I'ma make you proud
I'ma make you proud
And I'ma always scream it loud
I promise I'ma make you proud
I'ma make you proud
I know you gon hold me down I promise I'ma make you proud

[Verse 2]
I can’t even lie to myself
I’d be more messed If i tried this myself
Proud
Wheels turning like I’m Tina
I’m tryna be ya twin you Tamera I’m Tia
Pursuit of happiness like I’m will
I’m just tryna do everything in your will
Your plan is efficient forget how i feel
Going for the ring I’m Kobe and you Phil
I know I mess up I know fall down
But there good like you working for the law now
Born in to sin was never born to be perfect
I may have some scars remember we stay working
If you looking for some fakes you can find em
Uh we just a whole bunch of adams like Yolanda
You the truest of the friends and I promise in the end

[Chorus]
I'ma make you proud
I promise I'ma make you proud
I promise I'ma make you proud
I'ma make you proud
And I'ma always scream it loud
I promise I'ma make you proud
I'ma make you proud
Yeah I know you gon hold me down
I promise I'ma make you proud
Yeah I promise I'ma make you proud
I promise I'ma make you proud

[Bridge]
Break it down ayy
Yeah make you proud
Make you proud
Yeah uh-huh yeah
Make you proud
Make you proud
Yeah yeah ayy uh
Make you proud
Make you proud, yeah
The comeback always stronger than a setback
And in the end I bet that

[Chorus]
Yeah I'ma make you proud
I promise I'ma make you proud
I promise I'ma make you proud
I'ma make you proud
And I'ma always scream it loud
I promise I'ma make you proud
I'ma make you proud
Yeah I know you gon hold me down
I promise I'ma make you proud
I promise I'ma make you proud
I promise I'ma make you proud
