Seanbennett618 - My Greatest Pain

This right here is my greatest pain Just lend me your ear and let me explain
I've been going through the motions in life but still can't complain
This world fucked up, it's a struggle to live Gotta maintain, get your shit together
It's much more we can obtain Father figures in these streets, we need more

Teachers No more idolizing these rappers, we need more
Leaders It's time to show the youth success, we need
Achievers And tell the police do their job, we need
More freedom Shit, I done paved the way

Just to watch my homies fade away We on different paths
I can't sit around and waste a day It's much more to life than getting high
And playing 2k, ain't nothing promised
We not guaranteed another day, I gotta go now Cause if I keep stalling, I cannot grow

I'm on top now, but it seems like they loved me when I was broke
I can't stop now, reminisce on them days when I was low
Ain't no looking back, success is in front of you, stay afloat
I'm just a small town nigga that got bigger dreams

I'm chasing money, it ain't nothing that can get between
Life's a movie, I'm just skipping through a different scene
Who would've thought, you'll never see me on your TV screens
I'm trying to change the world, I'm just an overlooked hero

They know that I'm the one to bring the peace, call me Neo
I was born in July, got the heart of a Leo Don't make me set it off in this bitch like I'm Cleo
If you can dream it, you can do it, put your mind to it
Ain't no time for excuses, shit we all going through

And staying real with myself, never need a label's help
I'd rather go inside myself so I can triple up my wealth
Leave that street shit out of the music, rappers snitch on they self
All that hating that you been doing is bad for your health

I'ma make it regardless, not your average artist
Can't show em no love in this game, you gotta be heartless
I been knocking these doors down, they ain't give me a key
Made it hard to ignore now, ain't no sleeping on me

I been uplifting my people, we all are unique
Heavy black man in the streets, got the mind of a king
Woke up this morning, felt like I need an intermission
To fail or succeed, that's one hell of a decision

I got homies that's been gone for so long, they ain't never coming home
Gotta spend they whole life inside a prison
We all make mistakes, but those trials and tribulations make us great
Gotta keep moving forward until that day we meet our fate

Got the city on my back, don't need no spotter to lift that weight
I put food on that table, let every nigga get a plate
R.I.P. to Action, R.I.P. to Jay
Y'all the reason that I'm still making music to this day

I just pray that they don't try and take me out for every word that I say
But I'm a man and I'm prepared for that day
This is my greatest pain, nigga
