Motherfucka, I'm prideful, when you gon' see

Never gon' lose, bet the bank on me

You ain't gotta lie, just because you're surprised

I can see it in your eyes, you never knew I could shine

Motherfucka, I'm prideful, when you gon' see

Never gon' lose, bet the bank on me

You ain't gotta lie, just because you're surprised

I can see it in your eyes, you never knew I could shine

Motherfucka, I'm prideful

I've been dreaming about this moment for years, steady improving skills while attacking my fears

I've been patiently dedicated, but lately I've been feeling the celebrate it

All the hard work through the years, just to elevate it

Everybody's hoping for gold, but not willing to put the shovel to dirt and then go

I find comfort in working hard and just working alone

I'm at my best when I'm knocking my targets down and re-establishing goals

It's self-improvement, only thing logical and the movement

Others are wasting time, while me I'm steady improving

And I'm grooving to the beat of my own drums

Never need approval, I approve with my own thumbs

Got me feeling good about it, I swear

Just a couple years ago, this was a dream and though working hard

I was unaware, I made a promise, I swear

No matter the circumstances, I will never quit

Motherfucka, I'm prideful, when you gon' see

Never gon' lose, bet the bank on me

You ain't gotta lie, just because you're surprised

I can see it in your eyes, you never knew I could shine

Motherfucka, I'm prideful, when you gon' see

Never gon' lose, bet the bank on me

You ain't gotta lie, just because you're surprised

I can see it in your eyes, you never knew I could shine

Motherfucka, I'm prideful

They say he's big-headed, egotistic, he thinks he knows better

I'm warming up to the critics; there's been some cold weather

I see the pride that you're hiding inside

Even with distance, I can see that you're burning alive

And your jealousy's itch, I can see it all on your arms

You in need of a fix, I was ducking all of your frauds

From the age of six, my development's quick

I was able to tell the difference from what was and what is

So peep the difference, I rap for my soul

And I'm never out of line, I always steer in control

My content consists of everything you needed to grow

While enjoying the simple pleasures of life, the little things you won't know

So I don't understand why you on me

Just do what you're doing, I'm always focused on me

There's no surprise, I navigate with my eyes

And keep in mind, I'm never closing the blinds

Motherfucka, I'm prideful, when you gon' see

Never gon' lose, bet the bank on me

You ain't gotta lie, just because you're surprised

I can see it in your eyes, you never knew I could shine

Motherfucka, I'm prideful, when you gon' see

Never gon' lose, bet the bank on me

You ain't gotta lie, just because you're surprised

I can see it in your eyes, you never knew I could shine

Motherfucka, I'm prideful

I always knew my path, and where it would find me

And where to go, I just lacked the control

I found love in the literatures and the arts, sports and the martial arts

My deep affection for women, and satisfying the heart

Misunderstood and others thought to believe

That I was too indecisive, and I'd never achieved

Constantly focused and yet still diverting his needs

You're spreading yourself thin, you never gon' see

You never gon' be the person you wanna be

Or who you see when you visualize, you live in the lies

You're filling your mind with thoughts, and your vision is blind

You never listen to reason, you live in disguise

So I never will be, I never will see

I never ask your opinions or judgments of me

So I'm gonna live and go live my life

I'm only saying this once, and I won't say this twice

Motherfucka, I'm prideful, when you gon' see

Never gon' lose, bet the bank on me

You ain't gotta lie, just because you're surprised

I can see it in your eyes, you never knew I could shine

Motherfucka, I'm prideful, when you gon' see

Never gon' lose, bet the bank on me

You ain't gotta lie, just because you're surprised

I can see it in your eyes, you never knew I could shine

Motherfucka, I'm prideful

I hope you do
