Pssst! Pssst!
Ayo, are you afraid to die?
Or do you wan’ live forever?
Tell me, what’s wrong n***a?
[Hook]
Pride has got you altering yo love with me, it’s love (You gave me pride)
Change is what you make it
So take in my love (You gave me pride)
Pride has got you altering yo love with me, it’s love (You gave me pride)
Change is what you make it
So love, love
[Verse 1]
Modesty and honesty
And honestly I'm self inflicted
I feel power is a joy that will destroy all of my interest
Dignity and suffering is robbing me to be sufficient
I've been known to curse the valued worth that labels my existence
Your condition is the missing link
That helped me find my vision
‘Cause my self-importance couldn't form this helpful intervention
Your opinion is the only thing
That puts me in this position
Love has ruined me
Now brutally I'm disrespecting woman
Time is guarding
Demons haunting man to man
Resort to distance
I'll be twisted, optimistic, doing shit outside my limit
Terroristic, ego tripping, prideful being superstitious
Self-adapting
You gave me the satisfaction of being different
Inconsistent, inefficient
Hear you without tryin’ listen
Lending me a helping hand
Without you offering assistance
Even though I'm well exposed of dying hope and good redemption
I'll be twisted, optimistic, future murder victim
But you gave me pride
[Hook]
Pride has got you altering yo love with me, it’s love (You gave me pride)
Change is what you make it
So take in my love (You gave me pride)
Pride has got you altering yo love with me, it’s love (You gave me pride)
Change is what you make it
So love, love
[Verse 2]
Pride is unfair, time is unfair
Die it's unfair, life is unfair
Joy is unfair, pain is unfair
We all could spark trouble that's dark and unfair
Pay you with old money
Backpack and unfold money
Sold out for shows money
Red carpet and coach money
Pimping and hoe money
Top dollar to broke money
Upper class and more money society stole from me
Take in all I give
Establish a way to live
Joy can kill anyone
Pride is nothing to bargain with
I see you for your true colors
Your arrogance sparks wonders
Don't cry when they discover
It happens to most of us
Love is unfair
Religion is unfair
Wisdom is unfair
There's knowledge they won't share
Fear may never be remorseful
I can't track the end of the time
But my estimate can surely freeze my mind until I die
You gave me pride
[Hook]
Pride has got you altering yo love with me, it’s love (You gave me pride)
Change is what you make it
So take in my love (You gave me pride)
Pride has got you altering yo love with me, it’s love (You gave me pride)
Change is what you make it
So love, love
