Mike Regal - Pain

You was down way before the glory
I never had no game, you understood my story
The only one I feel that ever cared for me
When no one else around, you was there for me
When I was going through all of them turbulences
Stressed by the journey, you helped me see the destination
Fuck, can't even believe I'm writing this
My niggas prolly wondering like who this is
But only my realest niggas know who you is
And all you want to do is make it something real
Shit, now it's hard to find something real
Now you don't answer then I call into social real
No longer social friends, I don't know how to feel
Come on girl, you can't just leave me like that
Too many conversations bout change, they need to stay the same
Memories of the joy, gotta help me through the pain

(x2)
I'm fighting through the pain, I'm hoping that you feel me
The one I really want, she ain't even fucking with me
You wiping off the tears, baby please forgive me
I'm sorry that I hurt you, I'm hoping that you hear me
I'm fighting through the pain

Grams' gone and gram's gone, only thoughts left
Pops they living them pop quizzing on my next step
I had to learn from experience how to watch my step
Mind state was pivotal from staying out them pistol wars
A young man with no guard to set off
Frustrated over lost of stars so losing it all
They thought that it will be the death of me
By cutting me off
Never snooze, I'm either ooze, draw back and we form
Jab the joy and the pain, hit the booth and record
All the pain that I've been through, man I just hate to recall
It's why I store this fuel, for the drive to be more
Being more than all them niggas that they done it before
Daddy gone by the time I met my prom date
Granny funeral 2 months before I graduate
They wonder why I stopped telling jokes and started puffing smoke
Going insane, but memories of the joy help me through the pain

(x2)
I'm fighting through the pain, I'm hoping that you feel me
The ones I need most, they ain't even here with me
I'm holding back the tears, I'm knowing that you hear me
With every move I make, I know you moving with me
I'm fighting through the pain

I've been fighting through the pain, the pain
I need you to keep me sane, sane
Things ain't been the same
Since you ain't been around
I need you to hold me down
Memories of the joy helping me through the pain
Memories of the joy helping me through the pain
