The pain wonât stop (The pain donât stop)
Almost like itâs got a hold on me (on me)
Shackles and gloves, I can be no more than a slave
And still the pain wonât stop
Like my demons got control on me
Wonât take me alive
Like if someoneâs gonna see the crime
And it canât be me and it wonât be me
I wonât let it be me and it wonât be me
And it canât be me and it wonât be me
I wonât let it be me
Iâm starin at the pain in the mirror
Or is it a facsimile?
Question that hurts more than the fact that it resembles me
Thought I left a wall in the past, I mean essentially
So when we side by side I just act like itâs all a memory
And then I got a whole market of fans
With no clue what I speak of but some of yall understand
If you knew about my walls you wouldnât target the man
And if you did itâs be about more than a marketing plan
I got a heart thatâs ice cold, Iâve been tryin to melt this talent
Honest to yaâll, ho, I lie to myself
Seem like I do the most damage oh, Iâm tryin to help
And no one asked for it, I decided myself
You think the road a nigga travel itâs been long enough for yaâll to see the winter
And I donât know if Iâm fightin my demons or goin to dinner with em
I sit across from that table just lookin brave and tough
But itâs only right theyâd get the check,
Figure that, I want you to know
The pain wonât stop (The pain donât stop)
Almost like itâs got a hold on me (on me)
Shackles and gloves, I can be no more than a slave
And still the pain wonât stop
Like my demons got control on me
Wonât take me alive
Like if someoneâs gonna see the crime
Fans say they waitin on a break-up
Donât want me at the altar
But how could their life alter, I figure how could they fought you?
Followed me in this business, you with us, we go through torture
With my exâs so what if? Wish I wouldnât want anymore
Iâve asked the question why do niggas really wanted me?
Couldnât be as simple as misery loving company
Canât be after she has been a gift and a curse
But how could you ever claim to love someone that wish you the worse?
It appears my happiness have some people resenting me
Should I appreciate love that come with contingency
Yaâll get mad whenever someone else mentions me
Ironic, got a angst thatâs showing similar tendencies
Spiced in some hate, I try to never be near it
You only want the best for Joe and we could share it
That can become obsessive like you couldnât believe
Donât take my word, just look at what happened to Steve
It got Rocky looking rocky had to buy me and I watched em both deteriorate
Was ugly if you trust me then you wouldnât want to share they fate
And so it seems the people watch up in the casket for it
Your mindâs playing tricks, I wish they knew theyâve added more
Would they ask for more or would that will subsides
Fought my heart out all of these years, Iâm shocked weâre still alive
Tell him like I toast that, it gets no realer
You love something too much, guarantee it is too real
The pain wonât stop (The pain donât stop)
Almost like itâs got a hold on me (on me)
Shackles and gloves, I can be no more than a slave
And still the pain wonât stop
Like my demons got control on me
Wonât take me alive
Like if someoneâs gonna see the crime
I crashed a million times, still Iâm way out of that
It come to me to air it out but Iâm way out of it
I have nightmares about the shit I thought I said
Grindin off that post repeated is a water bed
Look at you like a nobody, it ainât much I could ask of you
And Iâd give you a hand but the fuck would you attach it to?
Finished once, sure I gotta call you some more shit
Itâs not enough Iâm fightin mine still I battle your shit
The pain wonât stop (The pain donât stop)
Almost like itâs got a hold on me (on me)
Shackles and gloves, I can be no more than a slave
And still the pain wonât stop
Like my demons got control on me
Wonât take me alive
Like if someoneâs gonna see the crime
And it canât be me and it wonât be me
I wonât let it be me and it wonât be me
And it canât be me and it wonât be me
I wonât let it be me
No, it wonât be me
