The City Lyrics

I love the pain

I love the pain

I love the pain

I love the pain

I love the pain

I love the pain

This one is for the city

I got the homies with me

South Bend born and raised never learned how to behave

When I drop there ain't gone be nothing left to say

This is for the city that got lost up in the pain

This is for the homie that caught a fucking stray to the brain and still lived to see another day

I did it for the fame that's what they gone wanna say

Cuz even when you prove your worth they find a way to hate

I know bout the pain

I take it out on me

I'm harder on myself than anybody else could be

Growing takes acceptance

I'm leaning on my lessons

Still got millions I'm digesting

Broken heart when you see my ass stepping

All the pain that I kept in is finally coming out

The critics gone say bout time it's been a drought

Sir we been waiting on your presence for a while

My feet kicked up I plan on staying for a minute

This one is for the city

I got the homies with me

I cant change

Regardless imma stay ten toes down lemme take it to the grave

My nana always used to say calm down calm down

I think she'd say to turn up right now

I said this is for the city

Demons still with me

That's enough of the signing lemme tell you I'm freezing

Mama like my voice but I gotta funny feeling

That she gone like the feelings that I'm spilling

Same time they kinda chilling

My dreams always been scary

Felt the devil on my chest

That motherfucker even had his hands around my neck

But I never let him kill me

I wonder how he feeling

He probably saying pipe down

Fuck you pipe down

Imma make God proud

All the praise that I get he's still the one wearing the crown and all the words that I I spit wouldn't be coming out my mouth if he ain't give the breath to me

Imma let that shit breath

Lord when's it's all gonna be over

Hold my heart through the pain

Lord when's it all gonna be over

Hold my heart through the pain

I tried using the drugs

I tried sipping the drank

I tried numbing the pain

But it only made me weak

Now I see that love is my only sense of strength

I pray to god for faith and he keeps me safe

I used to love hooping

But then I found rapping

That sparked a new passion that I could not shake

Me and bro were cooking up every fucking day

Slowly the starts aligned

I made the sacrifices to be great

Lost the love of my life on the way

Now when we speak she got nothing to say

And all I feel is shame

Some things are out of my control

I just wanted you to know

I love you more

And I miss you bro

There's always a silver lining

It is not always shining

I dig deep and my findings

Always lead back to you

This one is for the city

I got the homies with me

I cant change regardless imma stay

Ten toes down lemme take it to the grave

I love the pain

I love the pain

I love the pain

I love the pain

I love the pain

I love the pain

I love the pain

I love the pain

I love the pain

I love the pain

I love the pain

I love the pain
