Pain Talk ft. Sheridan Lyrics

What if no one ever felt an ounce of pain

We had a world where there was never any people slain

Where kids werent getting killed over

Shoes and chains

And inner city youth

Never had to fuckin choose a gang

What if our founding fathers never owned a slave

What if people weren't afraid of change

What if every job paid a decent wage

And we got to live a life where we werent

Stressed every fuckin day

What if my grandpa never lost his brain

Would my grandma live with lesser pain

What if dreams were more than sleepin things

And jobs provided more than just financial gain

What if the people runnin things agreed on things

Would we be engaged in battles overseas

And this life is not an easy thing

But I can't help but think we make it harder than it needs to be

Everytime I think about just who I wanna be

Something inside tells me aint too many of us free

People they might come and go

The things we do they fade

Still we must keep on trying if

We're gonna make a change

What if mental health was treated like the physical

What if humans were

Incapable of bein synical

What if good news was on the tv in the living room

And people didn't judge you by the music

That you listened too

What if people didn't care how other people lived

What if people understood what trauma is

What if it was understood that

Just cause you don't see it

That don't mean that its not how it is

Theres more to life than just the place you live

They call it small world but honestly this place is big

What if everybody had a place to live

And people didn't starve

And no one ever knew what homeless is

What if we could think outside the way we think

Have an honest conversation over drinks

I'm not sayin we should all agree

But we could find a peace

And find the beauty that

A difference brings

Everytime I think about just who I wanna be

Something inside tells me aint too many of us free

People they might come and go

The things we do they fade

Still we must keep on trying if

We're gonna make a change
