Pain Badu

Trying to fortify yourself in that 9 to 5 Adulting hitting every angle selling every lie Matters of the heart and the skin petrify Looking at the census I'm so grateful that I'm still alive But not grateful every night I don't even recognise All the pain that I have caused Walking into people's lives My naivety has painted pain in certain people's eyes When they look at me they see the wolf who was in denial Sheep howling at the moon Ignorance has bloomed Danger to yourself and anybody who consumes All the falsehoods you produced When you thought you were doing good Sometimes intention don't meet impact even when it should It's that pain badu Dunno what to do When your heart shoot past the skin right through It's that pain badu Dunno what to do When your current state ain't aligned with your truth It's that pain badu Dunno what to do When your heart shoot past the skin right through It's that pain badu Dunno what to do When your current state ain't aligned with your truth It's that pain badu Dunno what to do When your heart shoot past the skin right through It's that pain badu Dunno what to do When your current state ain't aligned with your truth (Please don't do that) Retrospection got me singing introspection (Introspection) Documenting and revising all my lessons (All my lessons) Trying to be more than all of my transgressions Not forgetting to enjoy all of my blessings Even though forgetting is something we always do Highlighting all the times when our hearts turn blue Through loving, lusting, loss, and our high paid dues Pain will never die but I pray mine do It's a pain badu Dunno what to do When your heart shoot past the skin right through It's a pain badu Dunno what to do When your current state ain't aligned with your truth It's a pain badu Dunno what to do When your heart shoot past the skin right through It's a pain badu Dunno what to do When your current state ain't aligned with your truth It's the pain badu Dunno what to do When your heart shoot past the skin right through It's the pain badu Dunno what to do When your current shade ain't aligned with your truth It's the pain badu Dunno what to do When your heart shoot past the skin right through It's the pain badu Dunno what to do When your current shade ain't aligned with your truth It's the pain badu, yeah (Please don't do that)
