Wale - No Pain No Gain lyrics

[Intro: Magazeen] Keep fighting till you overcome In the jungle beat the drums Ooh, Oooh Victory I must get Tell me can you feel my pain? Ooh, Oooh [Verse 1: Wale] Uh, yeah I'm a gladiator, I'm a fighter, champion, a warrior I'm a family man I gotta pay my dues, but can't afford to run Hold my head up high and never let up, nah, maybe it's foolish pride And if I gotta lose then make me fall down four times, I get up five I'm committed to this, I'm addicted to winnin but ain't livin for that Tryin to get em to see I don't do it for me, as long as I'm givin civilians a hundred million percent This is hard work, this is our turf, I'm a carry the city till my arms hurt I'm a move, make, and never lose faith I know the easy plays do the hard work [Hook x2: Wale] No pain no gain, no strife no stripes, no blood no bash For the burgundy and gold never hold nothin' back No pain no gain, no strife no stripes, no blood no bash For the burgundy and gold we gone always fight [Interlude x5: Magazeen] Fight, fight, fight [Verse 2: Wale] Look, we came to work, we came to win They came to watch, so let the games begin The defense will be sick, when we get up in The trenches relentless till we put up six Where your focus at? Where your soldiers at? You never got to ask It ain't no holdin back until we on the map No pain, no gain Though it hurt I won't quit, yeah And if I'm on one leg I'm a still be here all year, won't sit Stand tall for the whole team Work hard when it's dark, keep focused See the odds keep dodgin them all if you fall go harder Cause you're here for a purpose [Hook x2]
