Joe Budden - Pain Won't Stop lyrics
rate meThe pain won’t stop (The pain don’t stop)
Almost like it’s got a hold on me (on me)
Shackles and gloves, I can be no more than a slave
And still the pain won’t stop
Like my demons got control on me
Won’t take me alive
Like if someone’s gonna see the crime
And it can’t be me and it won’t be me
I won’t let it be me and it won’t be me
And it can’t be me and it won’t be me
I won’t let it be me
I’m 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 it’s 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 wouldn’t target the man
And if you did it’s be about more than a marketing plan
I got a heart that’s ice cold, I’ve been tryin to melt this talent
Honest to ya’ll, ho, I lie to myself
Seem like I do the most damage oh, I’m tryin to help
And no one asked for it, I decided myself
You think the road a nigga travel it’s been long enough for ya’ll to see the winter
And I don’t know if I’m fightin my demons or goin to dinner with em
I sit across from that table just lookin brave and tough
But it’s only right they’d get the check,
Figure that, I want you to know
The pain won’t stop (The pain don’t stop)
Almost like it’s got a hold on me (on me)
Shackles and gloves, I can be no more than a slave
And still the pain won’t stop
Like my demons got control on me
Won’t take me alive
Like if someone’s gonna see the crime
Fans say they waitin on a break-up
Don’t 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 ex’s so what if? Wish I wouldn’t want anymore
I’ve asked the question why do niggas really wanted me?
Couldn’t be as simple as misery loving company
Can’t 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
Ya’ll get mad whenever someone else mentions me
Ironic, got a angst that’s 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 couldn’t believe
Don’t 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 wouldn’t want to share they fate
And so it seems the people watch up in the casket for it
Your mind’s playing tricks, I wish they knew they’ve added more
Would they ask for more or would that will subsides
Fought my heart out all of these years, I’m shocked we’re still alive
Tell him like I toast that, it gets no realer
You love something too much, guarantee it is too real
The pain won’t stop (The pain don’t stop)
Almost like it’s got a hold on me (on me)
Shackles and gloves, I can be no more than a slave
And still the pain won’t stop
Like my demons got control on me
Won’t take me alive
Like if someone’s gonna see the crime
I crashed a million times, still I’m way out of that
It come to me to air it out but I’m 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 ain’t much I could ask of you
And I’d give you a hand but the fuck would you attach it to?
Finished once, sure I gotta call you some more shit
It’s not enough I’m fightin mine still I battle your shit
The pain won’t stop (The pain don’t stop)
Almost like it’s got a hold on me (on me)
Shackles and gloves, I can be no more than a slave
And still the pain won’t stop
Like my demons got control on me
Won’t take me alive
Like if someone’s gonna see the crime
And it can’t be me and it won’t be me
I won’t let it be me and it won’t be me
And it can’t be me and it won’t be me
I won’t let it be me
No, it won’t be me<br />
<br />
