PRIDE. (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

[Steve Lacy]
Love’s gonna get you killed
But pride’s gonna be the death of you and you and me
And you and you and you and me
And you and you and you and me
And you and you and you and me and—

[Steve Lacy & Kendrick Lamar]
It wasn’t all to share, but there
In another life, I surely was there
It wasn’t all to share, but there
I care, I care

[Kendrick Lamar]
Hell-raising, wheel-chasing, new worldy possessions
Flesh-making, spirit-breaking, which one would you lessen?
The better part, the human heart
You love ’em or dissect ‘em
Happiness or flashiness? How do you serve the question?
See, in the perfect world, I would be perfect, world
I don’t trust people enough beyond they surface, world
I don’t love people enough to put my faith in man
I put my faith in these lyrics hoping I make amend
I understand I ain’t perfect
I probably won’t come around
This time, I might put you down
Last time, I ain’t give a fuck, I still feel the same now
My feelings might go numb, you’re dealing with cold thumb
I’m willing to give up a leg and arm and show empathy from
Pity parties and functions and you and yours
A perfect world, you probably live another 24
I can’t fake humble just ‘cause your ass is insecure
I can’t fake humble just ‘cause your ass is insecure

[Steve Lacy & Kendrick Lamar]
It wasn’t all to share, but there
In another life, I surely was there
It wasn’t all to share, but there
I care, I care

[Kendrick Lamar & Anna Wise]
Maybe I wasn’t there
Maybe I wasn’t there
Maybe I wasn’t there
Maybe I wasn’t there

[Kendrick Lamar]
Now, in a perfect world, I probably won’t be insensitive
Cold as December, but never remember what winter did
I wouldn’t blame you for mistakes I made or the bed I laid
Seems like I point the finger just to make a point, nowadays
Smiles and cold stares, the temperature goes there
Indigenous disposition, feel like we belong here
I know the walls, they can listen, I wish they could talk back
The hurt becomes repetition, the love almost lost that
Sick venom in men and women overcome with pride
A perfect world is never perfect, only filled with lies
Promises are broken and more resentment come alive
Race barriers make inferior of you and I
See, in a perfect world, I’ll choose faith over riches
I’ll choose work over bitches, I’ll make schools out of prison
I’ll take all the religions and put ‘em all in one service
Just to tell ‘em we ain’t shit, but He’s been perfect, world

[Steve Lacy & Kendrick Lamar]
It wasn’t all to share, but there
In another life, I surely was there
It wasn’t all to share, but there
I care, I care

[Kendrick Lamar & Anna Wise]
Maybe I wasn’t there
Maybe I wasn’t there
Maybe I wasn’t there
Maybe I wasn’t there

Pride (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

One man come in the name of love,
One man come and go.
One come here to justify,
One man to overthrow,
In the name of love,
What more in the name of love.

One man crawled on a barb wire fence,
One man he resist.
One man washed on an empty beach.
One man betrayed with a kiss.
In the name of love,
What more in the name of love.

Early morning, April 4.
A shot rings out in the Memphis sky.
Free at last, they took your life,
But they could not take your pride.
In the name of love,
What more in the name of love.

Pride (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

When you scream aloud
(Heads down Heads down)
That’s when I plan to
(Rise up Rise up)
When you scream aloud
(We’re doomed We’re doomed)
That’s when I plan to prove myself to you
I’ve never gotten the simple thrill of a solo day
I’ve never seen the point in you killing you
I’ve always backed my words with what I do
I’ll always bite my tongue to comfort you

I’ll be my superhero #1
I’ll save me from myself
I, I rise,
Above the sun in the sky
Above that look in your eyes
MY PRIDE

Sister you know me
(Sister you know me)
Mother you made me
Lover what do you offer me
Father teach me
Brother protect
Lover what do you have for me

I’ll be my superhero #1
I’ll save me from myself
I’ll be your superhero #1
I’ll save you, I save
I’ll save you

Your eyes deny a life that dulls your pride
Your eyes they hide through me you’ll heal with time

A message to our enemies
Never fuck with one whose had to fight for being free.
Whether it’s one, or two, or three
We’ll take our pleasure out on making you believe.
And I’m taking you out and I’m taking you down, you’ll see.
And I’m taking you out and I’m taking you down with me.
The pride of America, is the fear that’s in your eyes.
And your insecurity will undo you in time.
I hear the people say
Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey.
Cause we’re the pride of America.
A message to your enemies.
Never fuck with one who’s had to fight for being free.
Whether it’s one, or two, or three
We’ll take our pleasure out on making you believe.
And I’m taking you out and I’m taking you down, you’ll see.
And I’m taking you out and I’m taking you down with me.
The pride of America, is the fear that’s in your eyes.
And your insecurity will undo you in time.
It’s just like the old folks say, it’s an eye for an eye.
There’s no turning back now that you’re on the front lines.
Hell yeah, and I hear the people saying….
Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey
Cause we’re the pride of America.

Pride (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Shake your dream
Like an apple off the tree
Bed it in the grass

Lay so still
Like you never ever will
Tip the hourglass

A way so bold
How time extends and hearts unfold
Curious at last

True this is a part of me
A part you`re not supposed to see
So come away come away

Just one step
Into another scenery
Out in a different world

Don`t look back
And don`t you even look at me
Unless you want to seek at me

A way so bold
How time extends and hearts unfold
Out in a different world

True you are a part of me
True you`re not supposed be
So come away come away

A scent, a whiff, a touch, a weary smile
A wave- good bye, from the bar to the door
-watch the gap in the wooden floor-
I`m back till sundown
A swift lift in a truck, a fuck, some crack
A sly high in the sky
-let my down easy, if you will
No pride to fall back to

Pride (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

It’s been said you should measure a man when he’s been kicked down.
Well this man knows the ways of life on the underground.
Now passing him by don’t you know won’t hurt his pride.
Now sympathy ain’t what he needs to heal his cries.
So load up on your intuition, it’s telling you right.
Don’t care about his situation, he’ll be eating good.

Chorus
Now things are looking up for him
Don’t forget me now old friend.
Got you through the hardest times.
I know you’ll be doin’ fine.

It’s been said you should give your life for another man.
Well all right now’s your only chance we’d all understand.
Until you’re walking in his shoes don’t be knocking?him down.
When you’re looking over your shoulder he’ll be coming around.
So don’t put him though an interrogation, he’s got nothing?for you.
Let him walk on by in this so-call nation, he’s just passing.

Why did you back me into a corner?
I didn’t mean it, it was just an act
My friend’s outside, can’t he come in?
And everybody else

Stupid pride, selfish pride, stupid pride
Why does everybody have to be like that?

"out!" just an act.
His parents love him, they send him money
But he won’t come back

No reaction, no response.
Forget him, just forget him.

Pride, a lot of good it does alone at night,
Pride, it does’nt matter now whose wrong or right,
I, i hold my head up high for all to see,
I’m, i’m not fooling anyone but me.

What good does it do to hide,
The hurting that i’m feeling?
Since your no longer sleeping by my side,
It may be too late to show,
But just in case your wondering, i need you so!

Pride, a lot of good it does alone at night,

The hurting that i’m feeling?
Since your no longer sleeping by my side,
It may be too late to show,
But just in case your wondering, i need you so!

Pride, i’d like to have my way -?,
Pride, ? one to hold,
So, i’m asking you in all humility,
Would, would you please come back to me?

What good does it do to hide,

Would you mind if we laugh at you
Do you mind if we sing with you

Make us proud of you
Do something we can’t do
Do it, do it

John waits
Barry hates
I think i’m heading for a fall
They hope i’m heading for a fall

I think it’s time you stopped stalling
We think it’s time you start falling
Fall

D’you mind if we laugh at you

Maurice white, verdine white, larry dunn, al mckay, philip bailey & fred white

Mighty men have come and gone
But the pride lingers on
Heritage will claim every man
With desire to make a stand
Some say pride’s for the strong
What’s the use, holding on
We say pride’s everyone who
Wants to come, touch the sun

While you pout, is your world
In doubt, it’s all about
Life won’t let you out of the scheme
Just believe in your dreams
Pressing on self esteem

Now participate, time for love
To motivate
Energies to say, brighter you, brighter day

Set your mind in view,
Of the real man in you
Time to check it out
Pride relieves all your doubt

Pride (Letra)

I’M SICKENED
I KNOW I’VE BEEN BETRAYED
BUT I KEEP IGNORING
THE WARNING SIGNS

YOU TELL ME
THAT I’M NOT BENEATH YOU
BUT YOU ACT ABOVE ME
KNIVES IN MY SPINE

NOW WITH ALL THE MONEY IN THE WORLD
YOU CAN’T BUY MY RESPECT
YEAH, ITS JUST A MATTER OF PRIDE
BUT THAT’S ALL I’VE GOT LEFT

I REACH UP
FOR YOUR HAND AS YOU STAND
LOOKING DOWN ON ME BUT
YOU TURN YOUR BACK

I BEILIEVE YOU
NOW EVERYTHING THAT WE HAD
THAT i THOUGHT WAS SACRED
HAS TURNED TO BLACK

NOW WITH ALL THE MONEY IN THE WORLD
YOU CAN’T BUY RESPECT
YEAH, ITS JUST A MATTER OF PRIDE
BUT THATS ALL I’VE GOT LEFT

Pride (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

You don’t care about
Self doubt coming out from inside out
Knock you down, across town all around the underground
Shooting and disputing you’re always persecuting
With your attitude and fucked up views tattooed, rude and crude
Denying, glorifying your way of life while crucifying
Close your eyes for the ride while you glorify your false pride
In any case you’re blue in the face ‘cause you lost your place in
the human race
That pushed you to do what you do so fuck you and your point of
view
I used to doubt myself because I lived without
What I needed inside
My pride, comes from inside
Nothing to hide enough tears cried
My pride won’t be denied
Moan and groan and chew the bone about the zone you call your own
Grow your own backbone hold your own and stand alone
Why pretend and be content with all the hate you hold innate
Pull your weight, it ain’t too late to recreate your inner state
Discontent with time ill spent time has come and time has went
Now you vent while you torment why resent ? misrepresent
The scene between the lean and mean serene, extreme, the American
dream
Live alive revive and thrive on life deprived as I survive
I’m fuckin’ pissed off I used to be so angry
I’d disagree with anything that went against inside me
But things have changed I’ve rearranged in exchange for all the
pain
I kept inside and tried to hide denied and lied, but kept my pride
By my side in good supply all the while, hostile
And senile, I never smiled at anyone but now I’m done
A battle won for number one so look and see and you’ll agree
I live life free, I now know me I am a man who knows he can
I know I can, I take my stand

Pride (Letra)

Take me and break me. Rape me. Forsake me.

Anna i

So we saved up, bought ourselves an outfit,
Nighties, nylons, beautiful dresses.
Soon we found a job that was going,
A job as dancer in a cabaret,
A job in memphis, the second big town we came to.

Oh how hard it was for anna!
Beautiful clothes can make a good girl particular ¡º
When the drinking tigress meets herself in the pool,
She’s apt to become a menace.

She began talking about art (of all things),
About the art (if you please) of cabaret.
In memphis, the second big town we came to,
It wasn’t art that sort of people came for.
That sort of people came for something else;

And when a man has paid for his evening
He expects a good show in return.
So if you cover up your bosom and thighs like you had a rash,
Don’t be surprised to see them yawning.

So i told my art-loving sister anna:
"leave your pride to those who can well afford it.
Do what you are asked to do and not what you want,
For that isn’t what is wanted."

Oh but i had trouble, i can tell you,
With her fancy pig-head notions.
Night by night i sat by her bedside,
Holding her hand and saying this:
"think of our little house in louisiana!"

Family

O lord, look down upon our daughter,
Show her the way that leads the good to thy reward.
Who fights the good fight and all self subdues,
Wins the palm, gains the crown.
