Game's Pain Lyrics - L.a.x - Game

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 niggaz 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

And 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 boombox, had to say 

Yoday was a good day, had the hood buzzin' 

Ice Cube my favorite rapper, y'all niggaz can't tell me nothin' 

Everybody's first bootleg was Boyz 'n the Hood 

Whoever thought gangsta rap would make noise in the hood 

When the cars ride by with the boomin' system 

Two door Mustang and the roof was missing 

Every girl at ya school had the new extensions 

Even gangstaz 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 

Photos 

And 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 hunnies 

DJ bring it back, let it go 

Mix it in with Black Rob, make 'em 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 'bout The Game 

Ask a Jay-Z fan 'bout Big Daddy Kane 

Don't know him, Game gonna show 'em 

Just like they showed me, my lyrics is O.G 

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

And 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)
