Pride
Frisco Lyrics

Ma Pride, One day it'll be the death of me, somehow it always gets the best of me,
Friction with my pride will lead to my downfall, it often overcomes me despite my best efforts.

Ma Pride, and you can even ask the man next to me, i'm qualified, so don't try testin' me,
My pride is central to my self-identity; don't question my abilities.

Ma Pride, I've been like this from the start so it's gonna be hard to start stoppin now,
My pride has always been a part of who I am, so giving it up won't be easy.

Ma Pride, It made me the man i am today, so i can't turn away and just drop it out,
My pride has shaped my character and my successes; abandoning it would be a betrayal of myself.

Ma Pride, I ain't the type to hide away,
I won't back down or run from anything.

I'm the type to cut my nose off despite my face,
I'm willing to make sacrifices, regardless of the consequences.

And i'll argue my point till the end, unless i realise im wrong, until then ima fight my case,
I'll defend my position until I'm proven wrong, no matter how long it takes.

They didn't wanna let me in the game, i had to find a space,
I had to work hard and carve out a place for myself in the industry.

Cos i was known as a rebel, then i showed man the level,
My defiance and determination earned me respect and recognition.

Test Frisc and get windscreen wiped away,
Challenging me is a guaranteed way to be defeated and humiliated.

(trust) you can get heated up like a microwave.
Engaging in conflict with me can be intense and overwhelming.

Ladies I got so much love for you,
I have genuine affection for women.

But ma pride won't allow me to be a bugaboo, (?),
My pride prevents me from being clingy or annoying in relationships.

Im so stubborn, hot headed like an oven,
I'm obstinate and quick to anger.

And you'll say may attitude stinks like a number two,
You might view my attitude as unpleasant or unappealing.

So if you heard i got boy'd off, dats lies,
If you heard I was pushed around, it's not true.

Your ugly boat will get sunk, capsize,
If you try to mess with me, you'll suffer the consequences.

And you can be wid your whole team,
You can bring your friends if you want, it won't deter me.

If i'm on my ones, i ain't finkin to run, (never),
Even if I'm alone, I won't back down or retreat.

I ain't scared of hard work (true), always want the last word, (?),
I'm not afraid of putting in effort, and I always want to have the final say.

Some say i'm hard to work out like a password,
Some find me difficult to understand or decipher.

Beef, then i blast first, beats, spit ma hard verse,
If there's a problem, I'll be the one to address it and my skills as a rapper will be on full display.

Acting like ur tough, when ur sweet like a starburst,
You may act strong, but you're actually quite weak.

Too many man, that was me on the last verse,
Many others have claimed to be as skilled as me, but I'm the one who proved it on the previous verse.

Hotel, pop off the thong, then i blast her, (trust)
I can have any woman I want, and I'm not afraid to brag about it.

I never once said, that i was invincible,
I acknowledge that I have weaknesses and flaws.

Just don't violate ma pride or ma principle,
As long as you don't insult my pride or my values, we won't have any issues.

Please, Frisco's never been a fake, i'm original,
I'm authentic and genuine, not a copy or imitation.

And anything i say in my lyric is non - fictional,
Everything I say in my music is based on reality, not fiction.

So anything i say is gospel,
You can trust that what I say is true and accurate.

I got MC's livin in ma flow like its a hostel,
Other rappers are drawn to my style and want to collaborate with me.

Der ain't notin but love, passion and pride here,
My music is fueled by my love for the craft, my passion for expression, and my pride in my abilities.

It's quite clear that ma prides here, and it ain't leavin,
My pride is a constant presence in my life and won't go away anytime soon.

It's quite rare, if they hype here, and i ain't squeezin,
If people are talking big but can't back it up, I won't waste my time with them.

I put the work in, shows up and down the country,
I spend grueling hours practicing and performing all over the country.

I need rest, but i'll sleep when i ain't breathin,
I know I need to take breaks, but I'll never stop until I'm dead.

Wow, ur still a big man ting, where i'm from,
In my community, being tough is highly valued and respected.

U get robbed it's not a give back ting,
If someone steals from you where I'm from, you can't expect to get your property back.

It's not a phone me up tommorow and some bring back ting, (na)
You can't just call the next day for a refund; it doesn't work like that.

An' the road wid couple soldiers that will split dat wing, (trust)
I have an entourage of loyal friends who have my back, no matter what.

Thats pride.
All of my actions and accomplishments are driven by my pride and determination.

Ma Pride.
My pride is a major defining characteristic of who I am.
