Troy Ave – So True lyrics

One mo (whoo)
Talk that talk nigga

Figured you'd be proud of me
Man I came from the mud and they label me a thug, and I'm still winnin' (figured you'd be proud me)
Ain't nobody playin' helps, I did it by myself, you could do the same (figured you be proud of me)
Everytime you see me ballin' know I represent us all that's a fact though (figured you be proud of me)

I love the way you sway that shit, when I say that shit, you get crazy when the Djs play my shit
I'm an independent rapper but I got them hits, until I make it mainstream then I got them bricks
But baby we ain't here to talk about drugs and truncheons
Itchin' from a dealer and a thug
Don't want my fate decided by no judge and I don't want no fake niggas talkin bout how real I was
I ain't here for Daddy O, I'm only here to ball and provide for my kids, hatas I ain't stressin' yall
Cabbage tried to kill me with a bullet they din't know I was blessed
Now I'm rollin' on securities and bulletproof vests
For the rest of my life I live in luxury
Gettin' money, praisin' God and succka free
If you feel the same way then you fuck with me
Celebrate all my wins sippin' bubbly

Figured you'd be proud of me
Man I came from the mud and they label me a thug, and I'm still winnin' (figured you'd be proud me)
Ain't nobody playin' helps, I did it by myself, you could do the same (figured you be proud of me)
Everytime you see me ballin' know I represent us all that's a fact though (figured you be proud of me)

Fresh outta jail, from a dong in a dirty date room
Now there's poems on my back, yard and my game room
They was playin' laughin' at it, dyin' in their own shame
Fake niggas never want a real one in the game
Ain't nobody wanna help so I did it by myself
Ain't contribute but they want me to distribute my wealth
I love sayin' "no," nine windows, eagles wouldn't let you outta my shirt you for sure
The difference is I do it for them, that's why I'm truer to them
They got diamonds but my stones shine bluer than them
I run a business while they run around the hood and chill
Waitin' on another million while they wait to be killed
It's the harsh reality, why you mad at me? I ain't makin' moves, I'm importin' em, candidly, when I made the news and was smitten
They wish me good riddance, made it out, the rebel 9-1-1, he the victim of the media, circumstance and the right decisions
The atheist views went against my religion
I stand for somethin' I don't fall for nothin'
They tried to trick me off the streets, now I'm black stuntin'
Figured you'd be proud

Figured you'd be proud of me
Man I came from the mud and they label me a thug, and I'm still winnin' (figured you'd be proud me)
Ain't nobody playin' helps, I did it by myself, you could do the same (figured you be proud of me)
Everytime you see me ballin' know I represent us all that's a fact though (figured you be proud of me)
