Pride

i always stand my ground
 with pride I wear my crown
 but right now it feels like I’m falling down
 lost my balance like I need somebody to hold me
 miss independent that’s what I'm spose to be
but yet i feel so weak
 like I’m being crushed by reality
 i try to hold on
play it off like i'm strong
cause i dnt wanna cry those tears
of hurt frm many years 
wanna let go when my hands is sore
cause i cant hold on no more 
but thts their plan
to see me fall in the sand
to be helpless to be like the rest
but i dont wanna fall in this mess
and when the haters hate 
pay them no mind let em fall to their fate
cause i stand my ground 
and with pride i wear my crown
