"Proud Of You" lyrics

"Proud Of You"

Sitting all alone in the river you cried
She do anything just to get dry
You were waiting on the next boat to sail right by
You saw an opportunity and held on tight
I saw you through all your flaws
I don't see you anymore
Dead to me, six feet below
Finally got what you want
Your name all up in the blogs
It's what you wanted all along

Should've never ever put it past you, that there was the wrong move
I ain't even 'bout to mention that nigga's name, but girl, you know he wrong too
How the fuck I introduce you to him? Known him ten years he and he want my recycled
Muse, I guess I dodged a bullet
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Let me offer you something for your consideration, yeah
Loyalty doesn't add up to an occupation, yeah
The men you end up with are the ones who can provide vacations, yeah
And pick up the slack for you
If you need rent, they give half to you

I ain't never been no plus one
I'm the one getting shit done
I took your ass out the strip club
Then helped you out with your business
Now look how far that you've come
You left me, but girl, it don't matter
I was just another step on your ladder

Congratulations on your big one
You did it, you did it, I'm proud of you
Could've been a rapper, a singer, a pastor
Don't matter, I'm proud of you
You the definition of relentless, I'm proud of you
You set out to do something and you did it
By any means you gonna get it, you gifted
That's why I say I'm proud of you

Proud, couldn't see the signs if you pointed them out
And your intentions, I never had a doubt
Till my brother showed me what the fuss was about
I was like, "Who? What? Nah, for real?"
Wish I could understand where you're coming from
But I ain't never been no plus one

I'm the one getting shit done
I took your ass out the strip club
Then helped you out with your business
Now look how far that you've come
You left me, but girl, it don't matter
I was just another step on your ladder (Yeah)

Congratulations on your big one
You did it, you did it, I'm proud of you
Could've been a rapper, a singer, a pastor
Don't matter, I'm proud of you
You the definition of relentless, I'm proud of you
You set out to do something and you did it
By any means you gonna get it, you gifted
That's why I say I'm—
