A lot of pain
It's a pain game
They all trying to get a drop on me
They all trying to put the block on me
I'm handy with the rock, you see
Yeah, yeah, yeah
A lot of pain
I keep on moving
I'm steady with movement
'Cause I ain't gon' lose it
I keep on moving
It's a pain game
A lot of pain
It's a pain game
They all trying to get a drop on me
They all trying to put the block on me
I'm handy with the rock, you see
Yeah, yeah, yeah
A lot of pain
I keep on moving
I'm steady with movement
'Cause I ain't gon' lose it
I keep on moving
It's a pain game
A lot of pain
I done felt a lot of pain in my lifetime
The Lord saved me, He came at the right time
Helping me to maintain, He my lifeline
Telling me I need to stay sane in my right mind
Looking in the mirror and I see who I used to be
I see my reflection like, "Damn, you or me?"
I strayed the wrong way, had to re-evaluate
I came a long way
So why in hell would I mix up everything I worked for?
If that's the case, what the hell did I work for?
Stressed out these days, so we smoke more
My whole life kinda resembles a folklore
And I come up from the dirt
Pug on my mental, blood on my shirt
Tickling on my pistol, hustle on the first
The struggle isn't missing, we running from the hurt
Stuck in from the curse
So I crept on the come-up
I stayed up late while they slept in their slumber
And I can't wait, I got no time to wonder
If all these fake niggas blocked in
Mama heard I-
Niggas wanna keep it real
Wanna make a cup of milk
Still stay in the hood
You wanna play in the hood
You can't be no rapper, it's understood
That black life don't matter
Stuck in the cycle
We can't understand it
We not comprehending
The problem is we don't see the worth in this
Brings out the worst in us
Keeps us in chains
So we'll never be free
Mental and blinded
They drain all my energy
Made me an inmate
In prison you'll find me
They calling me savage
An animal, criminal-minded
It's a pain game
They all trying to get a drop on me
They all trying to put the block on me
I'm handy with the rock, you see
Yeah, yeah, yeah
A lot of pain
I keep on moving
I'm steady with movement
'Cause I ain't gon' lose it
I keep on moving
It's a pain game
A lot of pain
It's a pain game
They all trying to get a drop on me
They all trying to put the block on me
I'm handy with the rock, you see
Yeah, yeah, yeah
A lot of pain
I keep on moving
I'm steady with movement
'Cause I ain't gon' lose it
I keep on moving
It's a pain game
A lot of pain
It's the same game
I'm turning on my television
And I'm seeing television
When they're tell me that it's all fake news
Is it really a lie?
Nobody wanna hear the truth
They'd rather eat food
They'd rather have somebody tickle their ear
With propaganda
Tell them what they wanna hear
A lot of lies and scandal
I'll be damned
My mind ready to ride the random
Find the answers
Matter of fact, we found the answer
God
Eyes on the prize
Open mind, focus
I'll rise till I die
We look up to the sky for life
Hoping God will shine some light
Calculating the signs of time
Time reveals the revelation
They losing their mind for real
They need salvation to save them
Chasing the devil in his machinations
Trying to bargain for souls
There'll be no negotiation
Amen
Please keep on guiding my steps
If I don't let them leave me
Believe me, I won't go nowhere
We got a whole lot of problems
And I don't think the government
Give a damn to solve them
'Cause man is the problem
Man with the power
Man with the money
And the gift that they devour
Waiting for the hour
The weeds will be separated
Far from the flowers
Watch how the nations
Disgracefully cower
Amen
There ain't no end of the hard time
Must go in the full time
Step up careful
Some of us ain't made men
In this game that we play
We take shorts and losses to pay
Then we get right back up
And we try to sustain
But it's hell to maintain
It's a pain game
They all trying to get a drop on me
They all trying to put the block on me
I'm handy with the rock, you see
Yeah, yeah, yeah
A lot of pain
I keep on moving
I'm steady with movement
'Cause I ain't gon' lose it
I keep on moving
It's a pain game
A lot of pain
It's a pain game
They all trying to get a drop on me
They all trying to put the block on me
I'm handy with the rock, you see
Yeah, yeah, yeah
A lot of pain
I keep on moving
I'm steady with movement
'Cause I ain't gon' lose it
I keep on moving
It's a pain game
A lot of pain
Hey yeah
I've been through it all
But I maintain
I did, I did, oh hey
I thought Black Lives Matter
It said Black Lives Matter
It seems Black Lives Matter
But Black lives don't matter
I thought Black Lives Matter
It said Black Lives Matter
It seems Black Lives Matter
What's up man?
Nah, I'm pulling up in the studio
Nah, I'll hit...
