[Rose Royce]
You abandoned me
Love don't live here any more
Just a fantasy
Love don't live here any more

[Ghetts]
Hatred in my heart
Veins full of venom
Pain in my bars
I ain't strayed from the essence
Love don't live here any more, love ain't a tenant
Love moved out, when hate moved in, love ain't present

[Kano]
When Deja was my gaff
Jungle left the key under the mat
Those strings were attached but I'm not Pinocchio
In fact I always seen us as Jigga and Biggie
But as the years go on we're like Snoop and Pac

[Ghetts]
And that's the way it is
I don't love you any more
Back in the day I did
We had amazing times
We even made some kids
Get the baby wipes
Daddies gone and he made 'em sick
[Kano]
Yeah G we were sonning 'em
They really got tans we were sunning them
See them EQ dances there, we was running 'em
Na, really like spikes running 'em
You should applaud me with a hand clap
I gave you How We Living and Layer Cake like you can have that
Not as far as Amstrad but Mikey never had Mac
But now we flew past shoebox money Tony had to tax that

[Ghetts]
You know me as the man that's been doing this for years
But now I've found a better route
But you don't understand that
Respect where respect is due
But you don't understand that
Tell the truth you wanna man back

[Kano]
Yellow Alize and a rucksack
Chip in for a cab fare
Then man would catch a bus back
Now where's the fucking love at
That's what Jigga said on Blueprint
What we did on P's and Q's remix was the Blueprint
2000 & Life, stupid
No Calpol, too sick
In a city where the skinny niggers bury niggers
Virgins, pop your cherry niggers
Used to say wait 'till you see me on the telly niggers
Turn on your cable guy and Jim Carey niggers
You probably saved my life
First aiding a n***a
When a n***a didn't have nothing you were there to make me richer
I never forget the things you done
But it seems like you're the goldfish, and I'm the elephant
With the heart of a lion, so you can tell 'em 'come'
Just cause I flew my nest, like a pelican
[Mikey J]
So we know the love
But in love we know
That its easy come
And its easy go
So we played the game
But then who's to blame???
Welcome to the House of Pain

[Kano]
If love does live here how come I see her in Manny
Out in Sweden, out in Berlin, even see that bitch in Calais
She would be there when I'm hurting, yeah she used to be my bandage
We were pioneers we engineered then took her out the garage

[Ghetts]
Took her out the garage
Then broke down on grime street
Surrounded by pirates
Shipwrecked, ship mic, ship decks

[Kano]
And don't forget the the Two P from the needle
Should'a known you was fucked who steals a 2p from a needle

[Ghetts]
You of all people should appreciate what I've done for you
I would'a dedicated my first number 1 to you
I would'a sung for you
[Kano]
Sometimes they act like they've got hate in their blood
But they're missing me every day

[Ghetts]
How can anyone hate me this much
I feel betrayed, I know my n***a Kane feels the same
I'd be lying if I said you never helped me build a name
Take away you're love

[Kano]
But the talent will remain

[Ghetts]
I thought we were forever
But is seems like you don't wanna see me reach my full potential
We had a relationship and you should know supports essential
But look a what you did you abandoned me at my lowest
Embarrass me and you know so now I be talking vengeful
How the fuck could you ever try to ignore my full credentials
Used to call me special
Used to wanna see a n***a buss, you are the devil
Now we both want a divorce, this is mental
Love don't live here this the house of pain
Screams to loud to keep the sounds contained
And everybody round the way is now afraid
Tryna calculate a thousand ways to out my flame
Bloodbath DNA, down the drain
They think I'm mad already, let me show them how insane
I'm on some sour face, power plates, hockey sticks
Bauer's aiming for ankles, someone's is bound to break
This game is a shambles
Bunch of morons, that look act and sound and same
They'd rather see me clash make me push back my album date
By any means necessary, get me on a Malcolm wave
And now they got me saying no
Just like the rowdy ape
Just because they ain't evolved they wanna shout complaints
I ain't involved, and that's three words I'm proud to say

[Kano]
Na, love don't live here this the house of pain
So much pain I think I need some mansion space
Figures keep talking what the actions say, ventriloquists
That's politics but no doctor is spinning this
Michael Jack my loafers on I'm spinning pricks
I know I ain't a smoothie but I'm innocent
What they guilty of???
Fucking up the whole damn rap game
Yeah, they're like you're spazzing Kane
I hear some other shit, I hear what spazzing ain't
I know I'm on my own dick, I masturbate
Bars like old school dances gas the place
And I be praying even though Kane ain't welcome in church
Got the devil on my shoulder I kick that bitch to the curb
Prostituting my style to benefit others
I wouldn't mind if I was acknowledged, overrated or even spudded, but fuck it
She lied to me, tricked me and left me
When I walk like Keyser Sozes
Call her the devil in some red bottoms
The greatest trick she ever pulled J
G I thought it was true love
Valentines got her roses
Then times there it was all harsh
Question mark on the notice
She loves me, she loves me not
She fucks me, She fucks me off
I call her, she cuts me off
I leave her a fucking angry voice mail
"I just called back to say I didn't mean it
I was an idiot, I was a diva, I was a Gemini acting like a Libra"
And I'm sorry, as a matter of fact I fucking ain't
No we ain't jumping around but this the house of pain
As a matter of fact I fucking ain't
We ain't jumping around but this the house of pain

[Mikey J]
So we know the love
But in love we know
That its easy come
And its easy go
So we played the game
But then who's to blame???
