[Intro]

Who runs the show?

Who runs the show?

Who runs the show?

[Verse 1]

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 rarely 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

[Chorus]

Pain is inevitable

Misery's a choice

Pain is inevitable

Misery's a choice

[Verse 2]

Now I'm a product, that must turn a profit

Something to prove, I'm a god, I'm a prophet

Tryna 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 in the afterlife

Young nigga done paid the price

Feels good to be nice

[Chorus]

Pain is inevitable

Misery's a choice

Pain is inevitable

Misery's a choice

Pain

[Outro]

What if, tonight, Lucifer comes for you

Turns out, your light, light

I hope, you're right (Yeah)

'Cause nobody wants to be

(I don't wanna be alone for the rest of my life, baby)

Alone, for life, life (Maybe a little bit)

So long, sweet boy (Oh, fuck)

You, will be missed (Baby, look what they did to me, baby)

Sweet as candy (Look what they did to me, I used to be so sweet)

Soft as a kiss (Smiling all the time, gigglin' and shit)

So long, sweet boy

You, you will be missed (I used to be a child, I just wanna be a child again)

Sweet as candy (This adult shit is for the birds)

Soft as a kiss

(I miss my innocence, I miss trusting people)

(I used to trust)

(Look what they did to me, baby)
