Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
From the heart, from the heart this time, yeah
All of these dreams that you done made true
All of these things that you done gave to
Call on me, I'll carry you
There ain't a thing I wouldn't do
Lion, tigers, bears and all of these things
They could never come between me and you (ayy)
I'm proud of you
I'm proud of you, I'm proud of you, I'm proud of you (yeah)
I'm proud of you, I'm proud of you, I'm proud of you (oh)

Couldn't believe it when you told 'em you was leavin', yeah
When you put them Cinderellas on your feet, yeah
When you shinin', kinda hard to be discreet, yeah
I'm gon' put you on vacation, get some leisure
I'm gon' do whatever it take, baby, to please ya, yeah
I've been through the darkness and through the bleak
You done held my heart each and every beat
And checked on me when I ain't wanna eat
And held me tight when the game on tweak, yeah
Hard times, oh, you make it look easy, easy (yeah) yeah
Heartache, girl, you make it look easy, easy

Crawlin' on top of me (ayy)
Woah, Kemosabe, everything big (big)
Help you get your body fixed, conspiracy, (woo) yeah
Drip from my head to my sock and I'm whippin' a new machine
I got the Percocets, I got the Wock', and I got me a cool nurse thing
She went to whippin' it
Had to tell her, "Lil baby, I'm proud of you"
Flood your bank account with all the celery
And it's makin' this lettuce and relish too (woo)
I'ma keep it clean in case I see you
She said, "Tell me how you flexin' but you never ride by?"
I got all of your friends out this Bentley coupe (out this Bentley)
And I can tell you all tied
Wake up, baby, wake up, don't sleep on me
Even though my cake up, I got cadence and real nice teeth
I want you (I want you)
I get ferocious, let you know I'm proud of you (know I'm proud of you)
Yeah, ayy

(Woo, ayy, woo, woo, woo, woo)
(Uh-huh) she put the Energizer batteries in my back
Got the lithium bubblin' (oh, oh)
Stay on my feet just like Harriet Tubman (I'm proud of you)
Take me to freedom like Harriet Tubman (woah)
Wow, pray for me even though I don't deserve it
Get off your knees and bend over and bust it
We don't fight and get to postin' our business
Teaching each other to have a discussion
Wow, wow, I'm so fuckin' proud
Keep takin' back shots like that
Fuck around, and give your ass a child
Your aura keep changin' colors on me
Fireworks, shit fuckin' wild
I can see it all, I believe first
No bandwagon, no t-shirt (T-shirt)
Girl, you're glowin' like a fucking meteor
Did you bring a friend? I ain't see her
Tunnel vision, only spot the keepers
Proud of you, I study you, I do the research, baby
Proud of you (yeah)
I'm proud of you, I'm proud of you, I'm proud of you (yeah)
I'm proud of you, I'm proud of you, I'm proud of you (oh)
You, you, you, you, (you baby) yeah
You, you, you, you
I'm proud of you
I'm proud of you, I'm proud of you, I'm proud of you
I'm proud of you, I'm proud of you, I'm proud of you
I'm proud of you, I'm proud of you, I'm proud of you
Yeah, yeah (SEX!)
