[Hook] Oh, the pain won't stop (the pain don't stop) Almost like it's got a hold on me (on me) Shackles and cuffs, I can be no more than a slave And still the pain won't stop Like my demons got control of me Won't take me alive I guess someone's gonna see the crime [Bridge] And it won't be me, and it can't be me And it won't be me, I won't let it be me And it won't be me, and it can't be me And it won't be me, I won't let it be me [Verse 1] I've seen a thousand friends being reduced to a handful I've seen the love of my life deciding to hit cancel They say life's supposed to change based on the angle But what's an angle to me, if I stand still I still can't stand the fact that I can't seem to get back to the old Jay, in fact, I'm still a million miles away from that Good ol' Jay is away and this f**ed up mimic's here to stay, I'm enraged, filled with hate, impossible to renovate Don't believe I'll demonstrate, I'll deceive won't hesitate, all this grief will detonate, as soon as the pain will penetrate My miind's a mess, my body aches, there's not much more that I can take, every second that I fake it seems like d**h's a breath away [Hook] [Bridge] [Verse 2] And furthermore my brain is sore from all the pain Heleen had caused I've changed a bit, a part restored, still don't know how I endured Another door's supposed to open as soon as there's an old one closed But somehow that don't work for me, so I just end up closing more Every day I wake is strange, tomorrow fades away your face, I ain't trying to win you back, I guess today I know my place Or maybe Jay don't work that way, you are supposed to turn to me, still burns and aches, but you don't really care bout what I say I wish there was another way, but I bet that wish won't be granted today, our yesterday gets further away, but the pain ain't fading away I've been reminiscing bout the sh** you put me through, it took some time but it's changed my view, I've come to realised that what you said was true, I guess I really really really wasn't meant for you [Hook] [Bridge]
