akira the don - that sense of self lyrics

you know what
it comes down to this for me
how do i wanna be remembered
and that’s the problem man
that nowadays
people don’t give a f+ck
how they’re remembered
they don’t give a f+ck
about their family
everybody’s equal
their mom is equal to them
their dad’s equal to them
everybody’s f+cking equal
so it’s a tough question to ask
because when i grew up
my mom worked three f+cking jobs
and all i wanted to do is
she got her f+cking ass
d+mn near murderеd
it took her down a dark hole
and i saw this
that helpеd me
grow up to say
all i wanna do
is retire my mother when i get older
that’s all i want to f+cking do
and thank god i did that
but the thing about it
a lot of people
they don’t have that in them
the parents raise the kids
very differently now
so the kids don’t have that
sense of self
that sense of self
i believe in self+discipline
self+pride
self+motivation
that sense of self
that sense of self
that sense of self
i believe in self+discipline
self+pride
self+motivation
that sense of self

no one has that self anymore
that self is gone
so that driving force that tells you
i have to do this sh+t
i took great pride in the fact that
i was n0body
that’s exactly what i took pride in
i wanna make sure you’re good
and you’re good
my mama tell you right now
she knows i don’t buy myself sh+t
i take great pride in that
i don’t want sh+t
because how i’m wired
i’m wired to “hey mom
i’ma get you this, this, this and this”
my girl
everybody’s got everything
i don’t even own a f+cking car
and i’m a multi+millionaire
and i say that with pride
because what i was here to do
as a man
and men
may not even wanna hear this
it sounds so barbaric
that’s the pride in which you have as a man
is that you see your mom
you see your girl
you see your kids
you see all this sh+t
you see them
doing well
i believe in
that sense of self
that sense of self
i believe in self+discipline
self+pride
self+motivation
that sense of self
that sense of self
that sense of self
i believe in self+discipline
self+pride
self+motivation
that sense of self

that’s all a real man wants
they don’t give a f+ck about how they dress
how they look
what they’re driving
they don’t give a sh+t
because why
your trophies
are your family
and they’re all walking around
every man that sees you
they see you walk in
with some sweatpants and sh+t
but they know
your family’s f+cking ballin’
because you put the f+cking time in
you put the effort in
you put the work in
and as a man
we don’t want none of that sh+t
we just want f+cking respect
and that’s what men
don’t give a f+ck about now
but the one thing i want
is for my family
to look at me and say
“that’s the man
right there”
and men don’t f+cking have that
they don’t know what that feels like
so until you know what that feels like
you’re never gonna seek
that feeling
of
when things are bad my family looks to me
that is my f+cking job
and i earned that
it feels amazing
that sense of self
that sense of self
i believe in self+discipline
self+pride
self+motivation
that sense of self
that sense of self
that sense of self
i believe in self+discipline
self+pride
self+motivation
that sense of self

when anything goes wrong in my family
if there’s a flat tire
they don’t call f+cking triple a
they call david f+cking goggins
mom’s got a problem
david
my mom’s sick
david
she don’t call the f+cking doctors
just david
anybody they call david
and that’s earned
that’s a good feeling
and i would challenge men
to try that
try that
it’s the best feeling in the f+cking world
money can’t buy it
nothing can buy it
so
it’s just something that
we
almost can’t teach our kids anymore
because the world is influencing people
from all over
once they leave your house
you got this weak family
that weak family
that weak family saying
why is your dad like that?
why are you doing that?
so it’s hard to keep it, man
tell you what though once you try it
you might become f+cking addicted
it’s addictive
you don’t wanna give it up
that’s right
it’s very addictive
it’s 100% right
my daughter down there looking at me
knowing that no matter what happens
that’s right
she’ll call n0body else
my dad got me
it’s me
yep
no matter where he is
what time it is
it’s me
he’s got the answer
and i’m gonna come out
and figure it the f+ck out
that’s right
and you all better hope
you’re not f+cking with her
think about it
everybody dies
think about it
uh huh
and how can you not want that
how can you not want that
that’s old school savagery bro
hundred percent
old school savagery
