Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Pride, pride, pride, pride
Pride, pride, pride
Pride, pride, pride, pride
Pride, pride whoa whoa

People let me tell you
I work hard every day
I get up out of bed, I put on my clothes
'Cause I've got bills to pay

Now it ain't easy but I don't need no help
I've got a strong will to survive
And I've got a deeper love, a deeper love
A deeper love inside and I call it
Pride (pride)
Pride (pride), pride (pride)
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
Pride (pride)
Pride (pride), pride (pride)
Whoa whoa whoa whoa (ah ah)

Well I've got love in my heart (heart)
It gives me the strength
To make it through the day

Right in love (right is) respect for yourself
And that's why I'm not looking for
Hand outs, charity, welfare, I don't need
Stealing, dealing, not my feeling
No back stabbing
Greedy grabbing
Lying, cheating
'Cause I've got a deeper love
A deeper love
A deeper love inside
I've got a deeper love
A deeper love
A deeper love inside and I call it

Pride (pride), pride (pride)

Pride (a deeper love) whoa whoa pride!

Oh yeah, oh oh

'Cause I've go-go-go-go-got bills to pay

And it ain't easy
It ain't easy
It ain't easy, y'all
It ain't easy
It ain't easy

No, no

I've got a deeper love, a deeper love
A deeper love inside

I've got a deeper love, a deeper love
A deeper love inside and I call it

Pride (a deeper love)
Pride (a deeper love)
Pride (a deeper love)
Whoa whoa whoa whoa

Pride (a deeper love)

@celtocarib

@PxP_Aquila

@@celtocarib You can't imagine how many people that are in their 50's (and even older, like my 80's auntie) that can burn the dance floor on a sound like this. I have played this sound in so many parties, people from 2 to 80 years old instantly get on the dancefloor , it's a dancefloor killers sound
