Pain Before Gain Lyrics by Ichokas

2020

(Hook)
You gotta go through pain before you reach the gain
To still be Superman after losing Lois Lane
The sunshine to your rain, there's life after pain
There's life after pain, there's life after
You gotta go through pain before you reach the gain
To still be Superman after losing Lois Lane
The sunshine to your rain, there's life after pain
There's life after pain, there's life after
(Verse 1)
I pack up my notepad to head back to my folks' pad
Listening to Friday Night Lights, wishing I wrote that
Taking one last look out my window to gaze upon my city
Counting from one to fifty, thinking "the fuck is wrong with me?!"
They say this meant to be the best years of your life
Instead I'm out here suffocating, holding tears from my eyes
I'll survive, I'm still alive, promised mum that I'd strive
Promised dad that I'd thrive, a promise is never a lie
I don't give a fuck that I'm out here living broke
I asked God for a sign, the lord ain't giving me hope
I just wanna spit my flows, I just wanna hit the road
Truly am my father's son, gotta let my spirit grow
In that moment I picked up the pen
My eyes rolled back, ain't the most religious of men
But God took over and started writing between the lines
Making deaf men hear and blind men see the prize
(Hook)
You gotta go through pain before you reach the gain
To still be Superman after losing Lois Lane
The sunshine to your rain, there's life after pain
There's life after pain, there's life after
You gotta go through pain before you reach the gain
To still be Superman after losing Lois Lane
The sunshine to your rain, there's life after pain
There's life after pain, there's life after
(Verse 2)
When everything is stripped away from you and you fall
Feeling like there's no gift today, you know who to call
I'm on the other end of the line, this friendship for life
When I said "I love you", know I meant it for life
We always been Tom and Jerry, Scooby and Shaggy
When I scoop me a caddy you'll be in that seat
Next to me, you're the best of me, Mario and Luigi
Brothers for life, man, you feel me?
In these bars I never lied, far from every guy
That steps to the mic, bragging about cars they'll never drive
Stars up in the sky will light your way home
I'm on the same path, my brother, trying to fight my way home
The prodigal son who's lost in the jungle
But my opportunities multiple, I got that from Sun Tzu
So next time I run through, we're gonna get it better
Family for life, my brother, the pain ain't forever
(Hook)
You gotta go through pain before you reach the gain
To still be Superman after losing Lois Lane
The sunshine to your rain, there's life after pain
There's life after pain, there's life after
You gotta go through pain before you reach the gain
To still be Superman after losing Lois Lane
The sunshine to your rain, there's life after pain
There's life after pain, there's life after
