Proud

(album: Waylon & Willie - 2017)

[Struggle Jennings:]
Yeah
When the moment comes you gotta own it
Waylon and Willie, Struggle

I'm part of your parcel, this is my Romans
I notice the road is condolence to my opponents
Foam at the mouth, I starve for the moment
Combing through the engine seen all the broken components
Never say die my slogan
Hoping it's not over, atonement from my wrong streets is cold time is frozen
Poet of the broken, chosen by an omen
Fathered from poverty but a shark in this ocean
They was drinking the Kool Aid I concocted a potion
Emotions from emotion discovered there's no devotion
Home in the morning hunger pains, no bitching moaning
I've been waiting for this moment now I'm gonna own it

[Jelly Roll:]
I just hope I made my mama proud
I hope that Milo's smiling when he's looking down
And I remember when there was no one around
No one was to be found, and I was on the ground
We all know when you're balling that everybody's by your side
Though when you're falling so many people run and hide
Are you really down to ride, when you know someone will die
Are you still afraid of mine, when our life is on the line
On the line
When our life is on the line

Know the streets gonna slow you down, people in the streets are the go and wild
You don't really understand me, if you ain't from a place no one smile
Man it's so hard for me to take you
Feel it in my balls and I can't shake it
You might not understand my reasoning
If you ain't from a place where no one makes it (makes it)
And I swear I feel your pain, I know where you coming from
I went to war with the same demons you running from
I know when the money comes (that's when the problems grow)
Even if it's a one and done (I hope you reap all you sow)

[Struggle Jennings:]
Met a beetle on the moon, he told me about my future
He said some stars are falling, and he said some stars are shooting
Pay attention to the universe and you'll see it's so translucent
With faith the size of a mustard seed find a mountain and you can move it
I can do it

[Jelly Roll:]
I just hope I made my mama proud
I hope that Milo's smiling when he's looking down
And I remember when there was no one around
No one was to be found, and I was on the ground
We all know when you're balling that everybody's by your side
Though when you're falling so many people run and hide
Are you really down to ride, when you know someone will die
Are you still afraid of mine, when our life is on the line
On the line
When our life is on the line

[Struggle Jennings:]
Uh, I'm James the Apostle, first to be martyred
My freedom was bartered, taken not borrowed
The pain and the sorrow, so I pray for tomorrow
I live for the moment, never feel what'll follow
A liter a minute, I fought in the field
Brought 'em out the valley, so we stood on the hill
I stood on my heels, enemies on the ground
Screaming at the clouds, I hope that you're proud

[Jelly Roll:]
I just hope I made my mama proud
I hope that Milo's smiling when he's looking down
And I remember when there was no one around
No one was to be found, and I was on the ground
We all know when you're balling that everybody's by your side
Though when you're falling so many people run and hide
Are you really down to ride, when you know someone will die
Are you still afraid of mine, when our life is on the line
On the line
