[Intro – Spoken / Whispered] Yeah… You ever feel like the pain ain’t just in your heart… It’s in your blood? Like it run through your veins? Let me talk to 'em... --- [Hook / Chorus – Melodic with choir backing] I got pain in my veins, scars in my soul Tears in the silence, stories untold Lost too many, I’m still here though God hold me close, I can’t let go Yeah, pain in my veins, I still remain Walkin’ through the fire, but I don’t change Devil on my back, still I reclaim My crown in the storm, through the hurt and the rain --- [Verse 1 – Raw and Reflective] Woke up with pressure, life on attack Bills due, faith thin, knife in my back Friends switchin’ sides, heart stay intact But the pain keep pumpin' like a cardiac I done lost love, lost sleep, lost peace Seen cold nights with no heat, no feast But I rise like the sun in the belly of the beast Prayin’ over pain, still grindin’ in the streets Mama cried for me, said “boy, you chosen” But my trauma talk louder than the words she spoken Ain’t no fairy tale, just prayers and motion Tryna turn my pain into kingdom devotion --- [Hook / Chorus – Full Choir Feel] I got pain in my veins, scars in my soul Tears in the silence, stories untold Lost too many, I’m still here though God hold me close, I can’t let go Yeah, pain in my veins, I still remain Walkin’ through the fire, but I don’t change Devil on my back, still I reclaim My crown in the storm, through the hurt and the rain --- [Verse 2 – Gritty and Triumphant] Blood on my shoes, truth in my rhyme Time did me dirty but I still find time To uplift the block, feed hope in lines Even when they doubted, I redefined Yeah, they see the smile, not the wars I fought Not the nights I bled, not the battles I lost But every L I took, turned wisdom and cost Now I wear my pain like a chain and a cross I ain’t built soft, I’m born from the flame With trauma in my DNA, strength in my name Raised in the shadows but I broke through the frame Now the streets call me preacher, still hood, still sane --- [Bridge – Spoken Word Style] Don’t judge me by the smile Judge me by the nights I ain’t fold By the prayers I whispered When I had no one to hold This ain’t just pain... This is purpose wrapped in pressure. --- [Final Chorus – Uplifted with Choir Harmony] I got pain in my veins, truth in my bones Grace on my path, I don’t walk alone Lost in the dark, now I’m on that throne God made a king from a heart of stone Yeah, pain in my veins, but look how I shine Turned all my hurt into heavenly signs Devil can’t break what the Lord designed I bleed with a purpose, I'm divinely aligned --- [Outro – Fading Spoken Word] It’s pain in my veins... But purpose in my pulse. Still standin’. Still chosen. Still here.
