Play W Your Pride

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Good Lord, Eddie Murphy The bank teller gigglin', my emotional inertia Slave to the gravity, held it down, system A Ridah like Ambitionz Fish scale amphibian, they rip it out the kitchen Hop straight to it, I'm a Detroit nigga Cali my influence flow, look at E-40 Since an adolescence, I weaponized my voice West-born reppers, and I went to class on [?] Got the molly off the East, took twenty-five percent Sold seventy-five for lint Profit off three-hundred hands Ain't seen 'em since John Wilkes Booth or Abе Lincoln I'll take a red, send a bottlе for your Act' Way I worked the plants, kinda like my granddad Currencies are global, smiles lead to good and bad Tell me what's in common with these passport stamps? [Chorus] They say a smile is universal, laughter's worldwide Money different colors, we on different times Everybody eats hella fish in the pond We can get paid, but don't play with your pride Don't play with your pride You can get paid, but don't play with your pride Yeah, I wanna see you win, but don't pay with your pride [Verse 2] Since an adolescence, had dreams like you I know Pops lookin' down from a bird's-eye view My memory faded from the drugs I abuse And my dreams still happening These for the days there wasn't nothing in the cabinet Feelings wasn't workin', I had to go ahead and detach it Something wasn't working, has to get more elaborate The path I took got me movin' like a labyrinth, huh [?] took the call, man, tell 'em tab it up I treat the pape' like bad head, done matted it up I know that a nigga like me got you mad as fuck, huh? But I can't see you through the high rise Move like a sasquatch, move like the Autobahn Move like he gotta hidden sides like polygon The way I tell the truth, I know you really tired of lyin' [Chorus] They say a smile is universal, laughter's worldwide Money different colors, we on different times Everybody eats hella fish in the pond We can get paid, but don't play with your pride Don't play with your pride You can get paid, but don't play with your pride Yeah, I wanna see you win, but don't pay with your pride
