Feel my pain, feel my pain
This ghetto got me going through a thang
God fill my pain, feel my pain, feel my pain
This ghetto got me going through a thang
God fill my pain, feel my pain, feel my pain
This ghetto got me going through a thang
God fill my pain, feel my pain, feel my pain
This ghetto got me going through a thang
God fill my pain

Every time I open my eyes I thank God for waking this soldier
Cause in this cruel world it's hard to walk these streets being sober
It hurts tryna get over all the weight on my shoulders
Ma used to be babysitters buying boulders
It's all on me to really accept that I lost my brother
And be strong and just go on since we share the same mother
Pillows and covers can't smother the pain that I have
Sometimes I feel like I lost my better half
So sad, but that's the way of the ghetto
See your life is ready made
It's an accomplishment to pass eighth grade
See hatin' paved my city
Givin' us the pushers and tramps for a high
Sellin' their book of food stamps at night
I light the porch lamp until my lil' cousin came in
Cause I can't afford to lose another kin
The life of livin' is thin
You could lose it if it came today
Rained away, you'd be wonderin' how to take the pain away

Tell me what we gon' do
Feel my pain, feel my pain
The world ain't the same yeah
This ghetto got me going through a thang
The way we live is a shame
God fill my pain, feel my pain, feel my pain
I can't hide this pain yeah
This ghetto got me going through a thang
Tell me what we gon' do
Feel my pain, feel my pain
The world ain't the same yeah
This ghetto got me going through a thang
The way we live is a shame
God fill my pain, feel my pain, feel my pain
I can't hide this pain yeah
This ghetto got me going through a thang
Lord fill my pain

The world ain't the same
From the cradle to the grave
Dear mama keep your head up, I'm tryna get paid
These ghetto tears got me want to scream
My auntie, 35, my boyfriend a 17 year old dope fiend
I live my whole life to stack some chips
And it's a shame when your own homie sank your ship
And mama cryin' cause churches be packed
And all your family and friends dressed in black
And it's sad to see my homies leave this earth
Some say ball 'til you fall, now it's ashes and dirt
Sometimes I feel like I'm trapped between Heaven and Hell
In the ghetto's purgatory with fiends and crack sales

Tell me what we gon' do
Feel my pain, feel my pain
The world ain't the same yeah
This ghetto got me going through a thang
The way we live is a shame
God fill my pain, feel my pain, feel my pain
I can't hide this pain yeah
This ghetto got me going through a thang
Tell me what we gon' do
Feel my pain, feel my pain
The world ain't the same yeah
This ghetto got me going through a thang
The way we live is a shame
God fill my pain, feel my pain, feel my pain
I can't hide this pain yeah
This ghetto got me going through a thang
Lord fill my pain

You might catch me walkin' my head down in a pourin' rain
Tryna find answers to questions nobody can seem to explain
I could've been born son of a king
Instead I was born son of a killer surrounded by dealers and fiends
Dear God I got some questions that maybe you can answer
Why my brother got shot and my grandmother died of cancer?
Now through it all I try to ball and keep it real
They say they don't feel what I feel
I guess cause they don't live where I live
Now see my mom tried to be strong when my brother died
Didn't wanna see her cry
But I seen it through the face in the mirror
Wipin' tears from her eyes
And my next door neighbor committed suicide
Was it cause of stress?
And if it was was it that bad that he would choose death?

Tell me what we gon' do
Feel my pain, feel my pain
The world ain't the same yeah
This ghetto got me going through a thang
The way we live is a shame
God fill my pain, feel my pain, feel my pain
I can't hide this pain yeah
This ghetto got me going through a thang
Tell me what we gon' do
Feel my pain, feel my pain
The world ain't the same yeah
This ghetto got me going through a thang
The way we live is a shame
God fill my pain, feel my pain, feel my pain
I can't hide this pain yeah
This ghetto got me going through a thang
Lord fill my pain

I'm sittin' here tryna take the pain away
See this one here is for all my ghetto people out there
Fighting these street wars
To all my No Limit Soldiers and to everybody in the ghetto
I feel your pain
Cause ain't nothing like being free
I'm tryna take the pain away
Rest in peace Kevin Bailey, Kevin Miller
I'm tryna take the pain away
