[Chorus]
Like you want, I wait for you to save me
You just stand there smiling while I'm breaking
Why do you only love the pain?
Give you every part of me worth taking
You'll come back just so you can break me
Why do you only love the pain? Oh

[Verse 1: Ivan B]
Yeah, I've been working
I've been feeling like nothin's certain
Cut the lights and then draw the curtains
No one sees when I'm really hurtin'
Picture-perfect, what they think I am
Dreams are in the air, but they never land
Hard to let it go, hard to give a hand
More I let you in, more I break again
All of this time I feel so empty
Look at my gas tank, been on empty
Runnin' from pain and how it tempts me
Lookin' for God and hope He bless me
Just gotta keep it real
Praying one day He'll let me heal
Heart of gold in a box of steel
Keep it going, only thing I feel, yeah
Just look up, only place you gotta go
Don't give up
I can't count how many times I felt like I just ain't enough
Only thing you gotta be is someone that you love
Only thing you gotta see is see how far you've come
I see it more when I drop this pen
Write it down when it hurts again
In my heart, it's a lions den
All this pain that I try to mend
All this time nights start to blend
Hurts me more when I let you in
But I love this feeling that you give
[Chorus]
Like you want, I wait for you to save me
You just stand there smiling while I'm breaking
Why do you only love the pain?
Give you every part of me worth taking
You'll come back just so you can break me
Why do you only love the pain? Oh

[Verse 2: C-Blanch]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Since I was young I felt different
Didn't know why, somethin' was missin'
Found it in music, found it and used it
Started writin', now I'm truly livin'
All started off one decision
When I chose to pick up the pen
Always knew I was destined for fame
But man, I didn't know when
Now I'm all in, and I'm feelin' the pain
At all angles like a protractor
But I fuckin' love it, it keeps me goin'
I'm the one and only, I'm the benefactor
So aimed at me? Pull the trigger
Better shoot for the head
'Cause I love the pain, I love the rush
Not givin' up, not givin' in, 'til the end
