Lyrics

Cold Hearted

[Hook: Miguel]

Life is cold, cold is pain

Pain is growth, and every seed that grows sees rain

And the rain gon' come, it ain't nothing new

But when it's done, the sun shining through

Life is cold, cold is pain

Pain is growth, and any seed that grows sees rain

And the rain gon' come, it ain't nothing new

But when it's done, the sun's shining through

[Verse: Blu]

I was cold hearted and young, a dumb kid with a gun

'Cause fun days don't last, the last nigga to laugh

So rap fell on my tongue

Numb feelings remain, and pain comes and it goes

But my wounds shows the room where my pops beat my moms

Moms screamin' for help, myself hot as the sun

Cold hearted and young

A dumb kid with a gun, that I got from my pops' top drawer

When he left my momma twice in a week

My momma lifeless and weak, spendin' her nights in the sheets

With seed killer number (one), seed killer number (two)

Seed killer number (three)

Got heat from the newborn's scorned brother

Blu black hearted and young

Raps fell off his tongue, numb feelings remain

The pain comes and it goes

But my wounds show the tomb that now shelters my boy

My boy needed my help

Myself not in the game, the game heartless and young

Dumb niggas with guns, 'cause fun days don't last

The last nigga to blast got shots all in his back

Wrath fell on his soul, but in my soul he remains

Pain comes and it goes

But my wounds show the moon shining off of his blood

His blood ran through his moms

His moms ran outside, five niggas with guns

Seed killer number (one), seed killer number (two)

Seed killer number (three), pulled the heat and he was through

Threw dirt on his casket, his mom wore a mask and

Still couldn't hide tears, years pass her son

Numb feelings remain, pain comes and it goes

But my wounds show the groom that still married my mom

My mom still had a son, dumb kid with a gun

That I got from my pops' top drawer when he left

My momma fightin' for years, my momma fightin' her tears

Now she gotta explain the game of her life to her son

But the sun still shines

Nine children and a newborn, scorn brother two

Blu, lifeless and young

Dumb kid with a tongue, that I got from Hip-Hop

But she left me for you, so I'mma give her to you

Cold hearted and young

[Bridge: Miguel – repeats, overlapping the Chorus until end]

Ohhhh... rain or shine (Rain or shine...)

Night or day (Night or day...)

The sun is shining through

[Hook: Miguel]

Life is cold, cold is pain

Pain is growth, and every seed that grows sees rain

And the rain gon' come, it ain't nothing new

But when it's done, the sun shining through

Life is cold, cold is pain

Pain is growth, and any seed that grows sees rain

And the rain gon' come, it ain't nothing new

But when it's done, the sun's shining through

Life is cold, cold is pain

Pain is growth, and every seed that grows sees rain

And the rain gon' come, it ain't nothing new

But when it's done, the sun shining through

Life is cold, cold is pain

Pain is growth, and any seed that grows sees rain

And the rain gon' come, it ain't nothing new

But when it's done, the sun's shining through
