zane smith - joy & pain lyrics

[intro]

yeah!
zane smith
huh!

[hook 2x]

let me tell you bout my joy!
my pain!
playing the game!
through it all i still remain!

[verse 1]

see i’m a rebel
talking malcom, martin, che guevara
huey newton, huey freeman (huey freeman)
not in opposition for attention
just standing for what’s believed in
believe me, rebellion ain’t something that i chose
it’s just in my soul
and i know, cause it shows
growing up tryna blend
that gets old when you get i old
i wasn’t chose
not accepted by some crowds
never frown, better smile
they gone get theirs in a while
why pretend?
when i can only be me
life is very far from the images on tv
actors and the props
don’t you live up in no box, expand
don’t worry bout the next man
put trust in no friends
you gotta love yourself
watch over your kin
get them ends
don’t pretend you somebody
in the end it means nothing
i ain’t saying go to college
but we all need knowledge
don’t be running up ya mileage
don’t you be a hoe
never. nope
you gotta stay positive
you gotta keep the hope
don’t stress bout rich or broke
even if you ballin, they don’t need to know the score
don’t you grow up in a hurry
oh yeah, protect ya mental
stay sharper than a blade
stand up, don’t be afraid
accept change
learn the tricks of the trade
beat em’ at they own game
stack some money from the pennies to the hunnids
gotta find religion, everyone believe in something
either way your destiny is coming
ain’t no running
just remember one thing
you’re different
you’re special
a rebel!

zane smith in this!
hey!

[hook 2x]

let me tell you bout my joy!
my pain!
playing the game!
through it all i still remain!

[verse 2]

from the diary of ______ ______ ______
got them scriptures
zane smith read it
the music that i make is poetic
ain’t no regretting
had to get it off my chest
off my mind, from my heart every time
it’s and artistry the way i craft my lines
i rap what i know
i know what i rap
unlike many men, share the life that i’ve lived
from my brain to the pen
zane is the name that my parents never gave
smith the maiden name that was gave to the slaves from the master
that b-st-rd shoulda gone and seen the pastor
but he crooked too
twisting words from proverbs
man i need to see the doctor
i’m sick!
fed up with the world’s foolishness
i been hoping for change
i been hoping for better
fighting through the story weather
sunshine & the rain
that’s joy & the pain
do my best to remain
battles in my brain
man i keep saying
you never know what someone’s going through
man i feel like running but i don’t know where to
searching for something real
expressing how i feel
telling life how it is
what i mean
when it’s joy it’s a beautiful thang
when there’s pain, why remain
distracted by the beauty
blinded by the struggle
a tussle in a tunnel
searching for the light
hoping every day that things gone be alright

[hook 2x]

let me tell you bout my joy!
my pain!
playing the game!
through it all i still remain!
