My Pain
Something you can’t bare
Such a look of despair
Focusing on the mirror
And not knowing who’s there
The sun brightens my day
A smile brightens my face
Then all of the pain inside
I try to hide it and erase
My feelings get replaced
When the fire hit the tip
I'm good for a while
So now it’s time for me to chill
Then the problems come running back
And pain gets deeper
Monkey on my back the devil try to
Bring me deeper
My mind start to race
You can see it in my face
Think I have a good life
Bet it’s something you can’t face
Became my own man
I did it for my mama
So she don’t need a man
Whatever she need I got her
Tired of all the problems
But it’s just a part of life
Sometimes I stay up in my bed
Looking at the wall at night
Thinking to myself
This dude is a coward
Put me in my mama
Never seen when I came out her
But I don’t really need him
I turned out good
On my way to the money
Because I got to leave the hood
My pain is something I can handle
So I tune in and listen up but never change the channel.
