R U PROUD? Lyrics

Mama, you gon' see it soon, the fruits on my labor

Mama, you gon' see it soon, money gon be our neighbor

Mama, you gon' see it soon, me countin' up the paper

I was ballin' my eyes out

I was watchin' them watch me fall as they walked out

They ain't answer me when I called out

Now that I'm bout my own, I'm bout my money, they wanna call now

Blocked, you ain't talk bout money, so why you tryna reach me?

You're not my professor, why you tryna teach me?

You just my shadow clone, why you tryna be me?

Anyway, I just wanna see my mama proud watchin' me on TV

I told her I'd be more than basic

I told her one day I'ma buy her a big house with my savings

I'ma make this a perfect picture that I'm paintin

The only thing is I don't know wherever should I hang it

Mama said you gon' make it

Mama said stay humble through the stages

Mama said watch out the things that you say and watch the people you hang with

Mama taught me even through the struggles, head on you better face it

So I'ma take care of the fruits that my mama planted

And expand it

Mama taught me never take anything for granted

Mama told me to take off when you land, see where it leads you

And mama taught me never bite the hand that feeds you

I was ballin' my eyes out

I was watchin' them watch me fall as they walked out

They ain't answer me when I called out

Now that I'm bout my own, I'm bout my money, they wanna call now

Blocked, you ain't talk bout money, so why you tryna reach me?

You're not my professor, why you tryna teach me?

You just my shadow clone, why you tryna be me?

Anyway, I just wanna see my mama proud watchin' me on TV

Mama, you gon' see it soon, the fruits of my labor

Mama, you gon' see it soon, money gon' be our neighbor

Mama, you gon' see it soon, me countin' up the paper

Onto bigger, better, and greater

I know gon' gain a good amount of haters

I know it's gon' be some people that wanna see me die more now than later

I know it's gon' be some people that show they true color, show they true flavor

But I'm countin' all bands, and I'ma need all hands in

Some people shoutin' my name, and I'm prayin' to God that they all fans

It's some people that got my nuts in they mouth they takin' my almonds

But I'ma proceed to ball out, yeah, I'm goin' all in

Ay kinfolk, all rise, all stand

We the real ones, they impersonatin' us, they some off brands

I was ballin' my eyes out

I was watchin' them watch me fall as they walked out

They ain't answer me when I called out

Now that I'm bout my own, I'm bout my money, they wanna call now

Blocked, you ain't talk bout money, so why you tryna reach me?

You're not my professor, why you tryna teach me?

You just my shadow clone, why you tryna be me?

Anyway, I just wanna see my mama proud watchin' me on TV
