Cypress Hill — Take My Pain

I can't afford to lose you Who do what you do? You're the tip of the fucking speer Who's gonna hold back the animals? [Verse 1] I'm at a strange point of my life, my spirit ignites I'm destined for heights, I'm so solid with the quest of the life I'm under pressure but the time is right For me to look inside of myself, time passes by every night I'm searching for answers meanwhile my faith is a prize And my neighbors are looking at me with hate in their eyes Grinding their teeth, the streets filled with death and lies Was set up to die but we plant seeds to rise So when the day comes pray some miracle will keep it protected Some of us have gotta go but you know it you expect it I gotta believe in more than I see In something better than this, whatever it is I need it quick before my feeling is gone Maybe my feeling is wrong But I'll embrace it like a beautiful song I feel something strong coming along I can't explain what it is, but I'm relaxed till my mind is gone [Chorus] Day destroys the night Night divides the day Reaper's hold is tight Lord take my pain away [Verse 2] This feeling is hitting me hard, my soul is scarred The feeling is all like I'm getting a message from God Believin' in cause, no one believes in the laws The reason the straw breaks, a soul is lost I'm searching for my soul in the mist of all this insanity Out of vanity my home is a war zone calamity, randomly Tragedies happen I'm sick of this life I'd give in a minute if it could free us from strife Gotta bond with the new brothers, leditucci and Cheddars survival of our mothers would be proud of us When the day comes and we rise to the height of our faith And nothing can touch us, we don't the feel the mothers Now the beast inside of my head, the life that I led Left me for dead and lost on the path that I tread I've laid so many to rest, from family to friends We pretend it doesn't happen, but when will it end? [Chorus] Day destroys the night Night divides the day Reaper's hold is tight Lord take my pain away [Verse 3] I gotta new thought in my mind in a matter of time I'll be in a sublime state of the spiritual kind My family is holding me high, they're nervous inside I can see in their eyes pride but the eyes don't lie If the celebration continues I'll follow my heart And my home is being infected from the poisonous dart It's fallin' apart, I don't wanna see its demise So I'mma have to make a difference to remember I tried My brother and sister smiling as I leave in the night My mother kisses me on the cheek and my father is quiet No words need to be said as my patters begun 'Cause nothing can break the chain of a father and son As I take a step in the street where my destiny lies Trying to focus, my nerves got my stomach in ties Rollin' in a club, goddamn these people are young What needs to be done, so I'll reach you over the ho [Chorus] Day destroys the night Night divides the day Reaper's hold is tight Lord take my pain away Day destroys the night Night divides the day Reaper's hold is tight Lord take my pain away
