proud - the tongue lyrics
[chorus]
said, i don’t ever pray
let the chips fall where they may
i’m fallin’ down
and i don’t ever beg
never shed a tear for myself
you must stay proud
[verse 1]
uh, uh, drivin’ down parramatta road
smoke leakin’ out the window, thinkin’ bout
the life that i chose, pride won’t let me
fall down, but i can’t stand up, some days
i just don’t know, a good samaritan
battlin’ with his demons, or a lost sinner
makin’ deals with the deakin, you will get the chills
when he’s speakin’ the truth, it spills out his mouth
like the rum’s forty proof, uh
young blood, what it do? give the world a reason
to take a chance on you, never let ‘em tell ya the story
tell ‘em it’s through, ‘cause this an urban legend
but no*one’s lyin’ to you, the pen’s in ya hand
son, we write our legacy in time
i scribble peace for my grandsons
but never wish upon a star, hold on to your pride
and you’re gonna go far
[chorus]
said, i don’t ever pray
let the chips fall where they may
i’m fallin’ down
and i don’t ever beg
never shed a tear for myself
you must stay proud
[verse 2]
uh, we all survivors
of the darkest instincts inside us, the type that my homeboy
is tryna drown with ciders, the ambitions of a writer
when the centrelink stops
and your pops gets cancer, life’ll sideswipe ya
ain’t no fair, ‘cept on the
train and the bus, guess i’m gonna walk home
make my own luck, swallow my pride
spit it straight from the gut, perception is reality
reflections in the mirror, do you see a god?
or a queen? or a quitter? or a king livin’ dream?
you can choose, you can be all the things you envision
if you dare to believe
that’s why i mc, ‘cause words spread a knowledge
that’ll set you free, and i gotta get these d*mn shackles
off of me, too much pride in the heart
of the prophecy
[chorus]
said, i don’t ever pray
let the chips fall where they may
i’m fallin’ down
and i don’t ever beg
never shed a tear for myself
you must stay proud
