DJ Pain 1 - Pain Wont Stop Lyrics
with Joe Budden[Hook]Oh, the pain won’t stop (the pain don’t stop)Almost like it’s got a hold on me (on me)Shackles and cuffs, I can be no more than a slaveAnd still the pain won’t stopLike my demons got control of meWon’t take me aliveI guess someone’s gonna see the grave[Bridge]And it won't be me, and it can’t be meAnd it won’t be me, I won’t let it be meAnd it won’t be me, and it can’t be meAnd it won’t be me, I won’t let it be me[Verse 1: Joe Budden]I’m staring at the pain in the mirror, or is it a facsimile?Question hurts more than the fact that it resembles meThought em all in the past, I mean essentiallySo when we side by side I just act like it’s all a memoryAnd then I got a whole market of fansWith no clue what I speak of, but some of yall understandIf you knew about my woes you wouldn’t target the manAnd if you did it’d be about more than a marketing planI got a heart that’s ice cold, I’ve been trying to melt, it's talentHonest to yall, all while lying to myselfSeem like I do the most damage, all when trying to helpAnd no one asked for it, I decided myselfYou think the road a nigga traveledHas been long enough for yall to see the winner in him?Don’t know if I’m fighting my demons or going to dinner with emI sit across from that table just looking brave and toughBut it’s only right they get the check, figured that I paid enough[Hook][Verse 2: Joe Budden]Fans say they waitin on a break up, don’t want me at the altarBut how would their lives alter, I figure how could they fault ya?Followed me in this business, you witnessed me go through tortureWith my ex’s so what if? Wish I wouldn’t want anymoreBegs the question what do niggas really want in me?Couldn’t be as simple as misery loving companyCan’t be as cliché as being a gift and a curseBut how could you ever claim to love someone then wish em the worst?It appears my happiness has some people resenting meShould I appreciate love that come with contingencies?Yall get mad whenever someone else mentions meIronic, got a ex that’s showing similar tendenciesSpite stems from hate, I try to never be near itDo you only want the best for Joe when we could share it?That can become obsessive like you wouldn’t believeDon’t take my word, just look at what happened to SteveIt got Raqi looking rocky, had em by me and I watched em both deteriorateWas ugly if you trust me then you wouldn’t want to share their fateAnd so it seems the people I'd jump in the casket forTheir mind’s playing tricks, I wish they knew they mattered moreWould they ask for more or would that will subside?Poured my heart out all these years, I’m shocked I'm still aliveTell him like I told Stack, it gets no realerYou love something too much, guarantee it'll kill ya, for real[Hook][Verse 3: Joe Budden]I crashed a million times, still I’m without a dentThey come to me to air it out but I’m without a ventI have nightmares about the shit I thought I saidCried enough that Posturepedic is a waterbedLook at you like a nobody, it ain’t much I could ask of youAnd I'd give you a hand but what the ***** would you attach it to?Finish one chore, God will throw you some more shitIt’s not enough I’m fighting mine still I battle your shit[Hook][Bridge]
