Game's Pain (Clean) (feat. Keyshia Cole)

See ever since the day I got the chance

To make a change

I've been in this game

It's a new day

And I'm making it known

Cause I just want the world to know

I'm paying my dues

And I got the utmost

I just wanna let you know

I'm payin' homage

'Cause you've paved the way for me yeah

I swear to God

It feel like every day is my birthday

Let the top down California's my birthplace

So I'ma take you there

Like B I G took niggas to New York

"Juicy" had us feeling like we was from New York

And that's real shit blazed the Philly

It's summertime shout out to Will Smith

Cause who didn't wanna be the Fresh Prince

Flat top gold chain and some fresh kicks

My nigga Nas told me

Money make the world go round

And Uncle Luke showed me

How to make my girl go down

I've been around Hip Hop since 85

She had her ups and downs but she stayed alive

I used to think LL stood for Love LA

He from Queens

How the f**k he put that with Cool J

Red Kangol hat red sweatsuit to match

Red Adidas nigga Game is back

Ever since the day I got the chance

To make a change

I've been in this game

It's a new day

And I'm making it known

Cause I just want the world to know

I'm paying my dues

And I got the utmost

I just wanna let you know

I'm payin' homage

'Cause you've paved the way for me yeah

Public Enemy and N W A is on my boom box

Had to say

Today was a good day had the hood buzzin'

Ice Cube my favorite rapper

Y'all niggas can't tell me nothing

Everybody's first bootleg was Boyz in the Hood

Whoever thought gangsta rap would make noise in the hood

When the cars ride by with the booming system

Two door Mustang and the roof was missing

Every girl at ya school had the new extensions

Even gangstas was dancin' like New Edition

Cause the house parties stayed rockin' all night

Niggas came through and shot it up but it was alright

Cause after the cops left it was a party then

You down with OPP then bring Naughty in

They say it never rain in southern California

Tony Toni lied

Sit back watch Game throw his money in the sky

Ever since the day I got the chance

To make a change

I've been in this game

It's a new day

And I'm making it known

Cause I just want the world to know

I'm paying my dues

And I got the utmost

I just wanna let you know

I'm payin' homage

'Cause you've paved the way for me yeah

Cash rules everything around me

C R E A M get the money

In the back I relax with all the honey's

DJ bring it back let it go

Mix it in with Black Rob make them say whoa

Every thing full circle Game livin' major

Girls on my hip like a Skytel pager

Now I'm on the top let the champagne pop

Throw ya hands in the sky 'cause The Game don't stop

Just a little more change gotta Benz and the Range

Every rap metaphor always ends in my name

The Kool Hercs DJ Red Alerts

Before I was born they was talking about The Game

Ask a Jay-Z fan about Big Daddy Kane

Don't know him Game gonna show them

Just like they showed me my lyrics is O G

When it's all said and done you niggas gonin' quote me

Ever since the day I got the chance

To make a change

I've been in this game

It's a new day

And I'm making it known

Cause I just want the world to know

I'm paying my dues

And I got the utmost

I just wanna let you know

I'm payin' homage

'Cause you've paved the way for me yeah

See Mary J

I want you to understand

You paved the way (for me)

I'm givin' homage (to you)
