proud (i know)

no tears in my eyes
seven years on the grind
i'm surprised that i'm alive
no fears on my mind
all my brothers on that time
if you really wanna try me
fake cheers when i shine
i'll return a fake smile
but i ain't blinded by the lights
snakes reappearing in my life
i ain't giving them the time because
i know
they only say they proud
cuz they ain't thought i'd make it happen
claiming to be proud
but i don't hear nobody clapping
whenever i was down
i know that everyone was laughing
but i ain't slowing down,
i'm running laps,
around these rappers let em
frown, they see me laugh,
cuz shit don't matter
ima drown out all the noise
and keep on stacking my account
ain't got a choice, but to
get this money like-
same night no sleep different timezone
new day i just hit anotehr milestone
unread messages on my iphone
i should probably hit em back
but i just wanna be alone
mental health declining as my
wealth is on the rise
"i just gotta make it through
the lows before the highs"
said that to myself almost
every single night, but
i'm still waiting for that
day to come to light
no tears in my eyes
seven years on the grind
i'm surprised that i'm alive
no fears on my mind
all my brothers on that time
if you really wanna try me
fake cheers when i shine
i'll return a fake smile
but i ain't blinded by the lights
snakes reappearing in my life
i ain't giving them the time because
i know
they only say they proud
cuz they ain't thought i'd make it happen
claiming to be proud
but i don't hear nobody clapping
whenever i was down
i know that everyone was laughing
but i ain't slowing down,
i'm running laps,
around these rappers let em
frown, they see me laugh,
cuz shit don't matter
ima drown out all the noise
and keep on stacking my account
ain't got a choice, but to
get this money like-
hunnids on hunnids my diamonds
dancing, it's flooded
climb to the top of the world
like gon in hunter x hunter
they wanna hate behind my back
but to my face they st-stutter
i'm used to having the last laugh
but if they mad we can run it
shit i'd be mad too,
if i was in their shoes
kissing up to people they hate
i could never do it
tomorrow everyone could leave me
i'm still going stupid
turned down 100 racks
just to prove that i could do it
no tears in my eyes
seven years on the grind
i'm surprised that i'm alive
no fears on my mind
all my brothers on that time
if you really wanna try me
fake cheers when i shine
i'll return a fake smile
