Pain Won't Stop
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 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 SongtexteYou 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 Aus Songtexte Mania
