[Verse]
Listenin' to "Expensive Pain", it got me feelin’ strange
Everything that Meek was talkin' 'bout, I really feel the same
Just tryna get up in the game, watched n***as change
Thankful for the ones that watched me get famous that felt the same
Shouts to everybody online that act like they felt my pain
I been through a lot, the way I hold it down, you’ll never notice (A lot)
Even for the ones I've lost, they know I'm forever on it
It seems like n***as get a lil' grimier whеn the weather coldеr (Brr)
This pain expensive, started out trappin', tryna change the business
Wasn't no Ace of Spades, the only thing I drank was Guinness (Diamond)
You might get started, but your heart the shit gon' make you finish
Already had the talent for it, I put some patience in it
You started your day timid, they gon' notice that, we’re warriors
They tried to teach me we was slaves, I found out we was glorious (Glorious)
This dope hit a dope fiend bloodstream, euphoria (Ugh)
Was all about I, felt like a cornea
These n***as gettin’ cornier and cornier (Corny)
The way I talk, it resinate
I'm glad I got my head on straight
Ain’t had no time to hesitate (No time)
This pain expensive, expensive pain'll make you change your mental (Uh)
They start indictment, ain't had no license, I had to change the rentals (Change)
That paranoia starts settin' in like they came to get you
You havin’ trouble tryna drive, might have to change the engine
Them bitches y'all got killin' the vibe, it's time to change the woman
True Religion to Mike Amiri, look how we changed the denim (Gang)
I kissed my daughters, pray this ain't the last time that I do it
Late-night stressin' over music
Until I signed with Def Jam, I touched a million cash and then I blew it
I do this shit for Shooter, any flag we put on, had to blew it (Roll up)
Everybody 'round me kept a pistol, we ain't box a lot
Just makin' sure I still got respect in case the dollars stop
Your bitch all in my neck, I guess she got a thing for Baccarat
We ball in overtime, nobody stopped the clock (Ball)
You dealin' with expensive thugs, expensive weapons, and expensive drugs (Expensive)
Gotta damn near be inside a casket 'fore you feel the love
Feelin' like the G.O.A.T. but you a roach, n***a, you still a bug
The type of shit get stepped on, just gettin' my Wyclef on
Smokin' on that fugee-la, Mike know this that ooh-la (Ooh-la-la)
Lauryn Hill blastin' when I move by
Like what you really left for your family the day that you die? (Uh)
Got 12 on my heels like my shoe size, when the murder [?]
Only respect the gangstas, and the gangstas is the ones that kill they family
Whether it's the foreign or the Camry
Might be quiet in the Maybach, might be roarin' on the banchi (Ruff)
Spoke my life in my lyrics, just hope that you understand me (Ah)
This expensive pain (Yeah), she never sniffed it, shot it in the vain
Expensive pain (Yeah), n***as'll kill you for a brick of 'caine
Expensive pain (Yeah), I touched a million, see some n***as change
Expensive pain (Yeah), woulda [?] rain
The devil touched my shoulder, let me feel the flame (Hot)
You did her dirty for so long, she'll never feel the same (Never)
A lot of n***as not gon' play, but this shit still a game
Chuck up these thumbs whenever you see me, this shit still for gang
