Foolish Pride Songtext
Low and behold
You see my foolish pride
Sometime's it's like my suicide
Ayo
A school nerd, I had glasses on my eye
While my classmates blowing weed, I'm passing on the high
Always calm now, but back then was walking to a different anthem
I had some interactions that brought on some temper tantrums
In 5th grade, see I was fighting every day
[?] on yo mama, so I smacked him in his face
6th grade came and that's when I hit Vincent in his nose
Got his blood on my patrol guard outfit, I went home
Now in 7th grade I'm feeling like when David met Goliath
I'm in a new school and see they test me cause I'm quiet
I'm such a nice guy but they took my kindness for weakness
So now I'm back fighting again, looking like Zebras
Earning my stripes
See all the teasing seemed to stop when they learn you can fight
Looking at all these kids shoes, I was yearning for Mike's
These girls found out I could hoop, now they flirt with me nice
I was turning my dice, but then high school came and reality set
They don't use fists no more, now they're fighting with TECs
So I quickly hid to check my temper
I wasn't dying from my pride, a lesson I remember
So please don't judge me, so please don't judge me
I'm just like you, I'm just like you, yeah
Please don't judge me, I promise you love me
If you only knew, what I've been through
My foolish pride is my suicide
I'm just like you, just a fool
My foolish pride is my suicide
I'm just like you, just a fool
Pride comes before the fall
And you never know how far you falling
Your pride gon' make you fall
Out of the sky my angels falling
Robert: You know living with you, it hasn't been easy. People see me, but they think of you. Now with all this going on, it's gonna be worth that ever
Rocky: It don't have to be
Robert: No sure it does
Rocky: Let me tell you something you already know. Somewhere along the line, you changed. You stopped being you. And when things got hard, you started looking for something to blame, like a big shadow. The wordl ain't all sunshine or rainbows. You, me or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard you hit, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward, how much you can take and keep moving forward. Now if you know what you're worth then go on and get what you're worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain't you. You're better than that!
