Pain Gone
I wanna love the one that's in the mirror every morning
Tell her she's the one and her smile warms me like the sun
(I wish)
I wish I was the one for me
Wish I didn't need a nigga just to feel complete
Wish Insta-feed didn't make me feel I should compete
With niggas nine times out of ten I'll probably never see
Who's probably looking at my grid through lens of jealousy
The pain hella deeply rooted
Wonder how many generations done seen me through it
DNA, man I swear we're sharing the same fluid
Why hate on a nigga just pushing their way through it
Why the fuck should I hate on a nigga coming out the fire
When their great great grandaddy probably sat next to mine on the Amistad
I'm a root for everybody Black
Issa ray of sun shining on everybody back
But that burden still heavy so I ask
Tell me when the pain gone
Tell me when the pain gone end
Talking to myself 'cause lately I just need a friend
I been feeling like I'm Jada Pinkett
Trying to keep my Will
Smith and Wesson made of steel
Pressured up against my grill
As I'm fighting through depression
Learning lessons in my feels
As I'm writing down my blessings to remember what is real
Now I'm still here
I've been fighting through some real fears
Real tears as I'm trying to get real clear
I've been clouded by some thoughts
I've been pulling through the darkness
I've been writing, pouring out like faucets
Often
And I can't think so I'll just drink
'Til I can't blink
Lord I must find my self-control
I'm not too old to change my role
Reconsider just to ease my soul now
Let me find this peace of mind to find the time to grind
Peace of mind to find my way to climb
Need this piece of mind to weather any weather
Peace of mind, I'm steadily getting better
With these bills to pay
Dreams to make
Things to change about me
I still got these bills to pay
Dreams to make
Things to change about me ('bout me, yeah)
Tell me when the pain gone
Tell me when the pain gone end
Talking to myself 'cause lately I just need a friend
Tell me when the pain gone
Tell me when the pain gone end
Talking to myself 'cause lately I just need a friend
(Find this peace of mind to find the time to grind)
Tell me when the pain gone
(Peace of mind to find my way to climb)
Tell me when the pain gone end
(Need this piece of mind to weather any weather)
Talking to myself 'cause lately I just need a friend
(Peace of mind, I'm steadily getting better)
(With these bills to pay, dreams to make)
Tell me when the pain gone
(Things to change about me)
Tell me when the pain gone end
(I still got these bills to pay, dreams to make)
Talking to myself 'cause lately I just need a friend
(Things to change about me)
(Yeah)
Lately I just need a friend
Tell me when the pain gone
Wanna love you
But that's not enough
And I can't deal with the pain
Tell me when the pain gone end
Talking to myself 'cause lately I just need a friend
Tell me when the pain gone
Tell me when the pain gone end
Talking to myself 'cause lately I just need a friend
Tell her she's the one and her smile warms me like the sun
(I wish)
I wish I was the one for me
Wish I didn't need a nigga just to feel complete
Wish Insta-feed didn't make me feel I should compete
With niggas nine times out of ten I'll probably never see
Who's probably looking at my grid through lens of jealousy
The pain hella deeply rooted
Wonder how many generations done seen me through it
DNA, man I swear we're sharing the same fluid
Why hate on a nigga just pushing their way through it
Why the fuck should I hate on a nigga coming out the fire
When their great great grandaddy probably sat next to mine on the Amistad
I'm a root for everybody Black

But that burden still heavy so I ask
Tell me when the pain gone
Tell me when the pain gone end
Talking to myself 'cause lately I just need a friend

Tell me when the pain gone
Tell me when the pain gone end
Talking to myself 'cause lately I just need a friend
