Lyrically, “Proud of Me” is an unapologetic declaration of self-worth and resilience. It’s a reflection of the rapper’s journey from the darkest corners of life to a place where he can finally stand tall. His words are a mix of pain and pride, echoing the promise he made to his grandmother to make her proud through his music. The loss of her in 2022 only fueled his determination to honor that promise, and this track is a bold step in that direction.
