There's times in my life where I just

I just wanna run away, I just

I just wish the pain would stop

I don't wanna cry no more

I wish the pain would go away



Start a day, bad hands make it hard to deal

Sometimes I wanna pull it, end it all with a bullet

Hard to live life to the fullest with all this bullshit

Mad as fuck, a nigga had enough

From jump street, saw my father murder massacre slain

One shot took half of his brain, I recapture the pain

Twenty-three years, three when it happened

Twenty-six now, still I can't stop the tears

Then my mood switch, thinkin about this sheisty bitch

Kinda funny cause they fake it when they callin you honey

On your dick when they think a nigga, might be rich

That's when I shit, cause I know you fuck with me for my money

Learned the hard way, ain't no correctin the grief

Baby moms starts sexin, my so-called beef

Don't give a fuck if they Marked me For Death like Steven

or relievin your breathin, long as I'm even 'fore I'm leavin

Pain...



I wish this pain, would go

away

We're talkin about the kind of pain that

I wish this pain, would

go away

just gets all up in your heart, and in your soul

I wish this pain, would

go away

The kind of pain that makes you feel like you can't go on no more

I wish this pain, would

go away

The kind of pain that I wouldn't wish on anyone



I can't relate to them cats who hold gats at the gate

Is it my fate, am I that nigga, that they love to hate

Solely, slowly, cause I rock a Roley they want my brain gone

Cause of a fuckin chain on?

Migraine's on, now the pain's warm, I stagger

And I'm hopin I don't know the cat with the dagger

Penetratin my heart, rushed thoughts etched in grief

To the City College deceased may you rest in peace

To the families, I never meant to cause no pain

I know the truth, but if you want, then I shoulder the blame

Overcome at times by uncontrollable flames, and multiple pains

Now it seems like I'm goin insane

For the love of you and hip-hop I expand the news

But before my shit drops, I stand accused

Don't you think I wish we all was rich?

One for all it's pain to see your people when they all can't ball

The pain..



I wish this pain, would go

away

I wish this pain, would

go away

I don't wanna give no more pain

I wish this pain, would

go away

I don't wanna receive no more pain

I wish this pain, would

go away

God, please take the pain away



I can still hear the shots that left my man Big layin

on my knees cryin and prayin, then I said

"God why? Got to know how hard we try

Don't let him die, please don't let my nigga be dead"

But it was too late, California sealed his fate

Gone now, hard to move on now, fuck making songs now

Wish I could die, I could fly

If they don't give a fuck, fuck it why should I?

That's when Big spoke, pulled up in a glistening 3

with platinum wings and said, "Puff listen to me"

He puts his hands on my head and said "I live through you

Make hits continuous, this is what we do

I know it might be strenous and times is hard

Just keep the faith cause now we rhyme with God

Plus you owe it to yourself and don't forget the kids"

That's when I opened up my eyes and new Bad Boy lives



I wish this pain, would go

away

I wish this pain, would

go away

One day the pain is gonna stop

I wish this pain, would

go away

One day there's gonna be no more pain

I wish this pain, would

go away



[Notorious B.I.G.]
