Li Rye
Proud Of Me
[Intro]
(Ayy, what's good, Trou?)

[Chorus]
I never felt like I was good enough for nobody, that's why I'm insecure
I never tried to break your heart, bae, from the start my intentions was pure
All my life I had this same pain flowin' through my body and still ain't find a cure
You say you love me and I don't believe
I done lost so many people through these years, I done got tired of grievin'
My mama say she proud of me, my mama say she proud of me
My mama say she proud 'cause she could all the shit I'm achievin'

[Verse 1]
I told my bitch we locked in for life, ain't no fuckin' leavin'
As long as you show love and keep it real 'cause that's all I been needin'
I been scarred by the streets, inside my body, bitch, I'm still bleedin'
Been on that block since I was fifteen, sometimes I even ask myself how I'm still breathin'
I was born to rap, they feel like it's a blessin', don't know this shit a curse
Every time they say I'm special, it seem that always make me feel worse
They don't listen to my music, they just hear shit I say in a verse
I'm spittin' my pain on this track, hopin' somebody'll heal me
If the opps catch me, I pray to God one of them n***as kill me
I been depressed my whole life, I'm just givin' y'all the real me
I miss my granddaddy, I hate the only way that we could talk's if I go visit his headstone

[Chorus]
I never felt like I was good enough for nobody, that's why I'm insecure
I never tried to break your heart, bae, from the start my intentions was pure
All my life I had this same pain flowin' through my body and still ain't find a cure
You say you love me and I don't believe
I done lost so many people through these years, I done got tired of grievin'
My mama say she proud of me, my mama say she proud of me
My mama say she proud 'cause she could all the shit I'm achievin'
[Verse 2]
My mama hate I'm in the streets, she tell me head home
Looked to all the OGs from the block and I was lead wrong
I hope and pray that y'all can feel me through these headphones
I'm just tryna speak for everybody can't speak for theyself 'cause that was me at one point and a time
Remember days outside alone and I couldn't stop for cryin'
Got older and don't know how I fell in love with cryin', man, why I fell in love with cryin'?
Look like a diamond in the rough, no matter what, can't nothin' stop my shine
Raised up in the projects, ain't have no choice but to go and grind
Walk down on a n***a and take his shit like he know it's mine
They hid me in the dark, covered my eyes and told me I was blind
Always been a leader, so if I love you, can't leave you behind

[Chorus]
I never felt like I was good enough for nobody, that's why I'm insecure
I never tried to break your heart, bae, from the start my intentions was pure
All my life I had this same pain flowin' through my body and still ain't find a cure
You say you love me and I don't believe
I done lost so many people through these years, I done got tired of grievin'
My mama say she proud of me, my mama say she proud of me (Proud of me, proud of me, proud of me)
My mama say she proud 'cause she could all the shit I'm achievin' (Proud of me, proud of me)

[Outro]
My mama she proud of me (Proud of me, proud of me, proud of me)
