Daniel Caesar – Pain Is Inevitable Lyrics

 

Pain Is Inevitable Lyrics

 

Who runs the show, who runs the show, who runs the show?

Who runs the show, who hands out the suspensions?
I need a lesson in mishap prevention
Young boy who can’t hear must feel
A masochist, you know the deal

I really listen, I forgot to mention
And I’m in need of a damn intervention
Young boy who can’t hear must feel
A masochist, you know the deal

Pain is inevitable, misery’s a choice
Pain is inevitable, misery’s a choice

Now I’m a product, I must turn a profit
Something to prove I’m a god, I’m a prophet
Trying to be something that’s real
Comes at a price, that’s the deal

Against my better judgment
I agreed to something
Too deep to turn back
I’ll deal with it it in the afterlife
A young n**** done paid the price
Feels good to be nice

Pain is inevitable, misery’s a choice
Pain is inevitable, misery’s a choice

What if tonight Lucifer comes for you?
Times out, your light is blind
I hope you’re right
‘Cause nobody wants to be alone
For life, life

So long, sweet boy, you will be missed
Aw, fuck, baby, look what they did to me, baby
Look what they did to me, I used to be so sweet
Sweet as candy, soft as a kiss
Smiling all the time, giggling and shit

So long, sweet boy, you will be missed
Sweet boy
I used to be a child, I just wanna be a child again
Sweet as candy, soft as a kiss
So dope shit’s for the birds

I miss my innocence, I miss trusting people
I used to trust
Look what they did to me, baby
