[talking:] 

Yeah, listen to these two words 

We all done experienced them, at one time or another 

Could be your mama, your best friend or your brother yeah 



[K-Rino:] 

Pain, is when the family ain't ate in a day or two 

And you the man of the house, and everybody's depending on you 

Visualize your best partna, taking a hit on that glass 

And start stealing from you, so you end up beating his ass 

Betrayal is when you give your girl, the sun and the moon 

Then you catch her getting knocked down, in your own bedroom 

Picture this, your sister's prostituting handling her bis' 

And you can't even tell your daddy, cause you don't know who he is 

Lil' mama you bout to have a baby, ready to name it 

Then the dude who help you make it, leave and don't even claim it 

You and your homie catch a case, for getting caught with a cake 

Then in court, they show this fool talking to FED's on tape 

You got a close friend you down with him, for life that's a fact 

But everytime you turn around, he got his knife in your back 

You taking care of your seed, you ain't never been selfish 

Then you find out that your only child, is somebody else's 



[Hook: x2] 

Pain and betrayal, pain and betrayal 

Scarred for life by pain, somebody else gave you 

Constant fight to remove, the stain if you able 

Call on the most high, from your brain it'll save you 



[K-Rino:] 

Pain, is when your homie dies and no longer with ya 

And you feel the sting, everytime you look at his picture 

A cat beg you to give him game, and finally convince ya 

And then he take the nine that you gave him, and use it against ya 

Pain, is when we start with only dreams that guide us 

Then we finally do come up, and let the money divide us 

Betrayal is when you find out, helping folks can be dangerous 

And sometimes your family members, do you worse than strangers 

You going to church faithfully, chasing your calling 

But the congregation is roaching, while the preacher is balling 

Betrayal leads your perception, amongst people that start it 

Pain is when your child can't have something, cause you can't afford it 

When you leave your kids but come back, much wiser and smarter 

And find out they see another man, as being they father 

They say forgive, cause a hard heart's pathetic and sad 

I done charged so much to the game, my credit is bad 



[Hook x2] 



[K-Rino:] 

Pain, is when your daughter or your son is molested 

And guilt covers you, cause wasn't there to contest it 

When somebody else did the crime, but you got arrested 

And did ten years in the Pen, before they finally confessed it 

Betrayal, people in your presence smiling and grinning 

Then talk down on you to other folks, to keep you from winning 

Is when a fool gets some cash, and make it out of the slums 

Move away and turn his back, on the hood that he from 

Pain, is when your husband was unfaithful and ran 

And through all of that to make it worse, he slept with a man 

When your wife or your lil' mama, was being untrue 

Then she tell you, she'd rather be with another woman than you 

Betrayal, when they told you bout a pie in the sky 

And you discovered, that everything that you was taught was a lie 

Knowing a person got potential, but they won't even try 

Watching the evil people prosper, and the righteous die 



[Hook x2]
