I think it was a Friday on a cold moonless night
little did I know that for my life I would fight
It seemed like any other day as I creased up my khakis
starched up my paсo and pulled out my new Nike`s
I called my hina tonight I`m gonna be with the homies
Please don`t go is what she told me
I don`t wanna hear that don`t even trip
You know I`m the craziest and I never slip
So I walked out the door to meet my carnales
vatos that I trust for doing jale`s in the calles
loaded the cuete as I concealed it under the seat
Always on my toes in case the enemies creep
Then I heard the cracks of a pistol as I bled
I felt pain on my side and my shirt was painted red
I felt my life leave as my homies panicked
Looking down at me yelling for me just to fight it
[Chorus: repeat 2X]
In the house of pain
I try to knock and nobody hears me
(nobody hears me)
Paramedics all around me So I asked for their help
They didn`t seem to hear me it`s like nothing I ever felt
They yelled for everyone to get back as they shocked me
My body jumped as I laid on the concrete
I could hear my homies screaming for revenge
But now I feel so alone no matter if I got a million friends
They can`t help I want to scream out loud
But no matter how hard I try no sound comes out
Where you taking me as they put a sheet over my face
Don`t leave me overnight in this horrible place
I wanna go home Oh god, My mom
my dad, my bro`s, my daughters and my son
How will they take it let me out, please they need me
Don`t let my family see me
I can`t handle this hurt it`s ripping me inside
All just because I had to ride with too much pride
[Chorus: repeat 2X]
In the house of pain
I try to knock and nobody hears me
(nobody hears me)
The next day my father came to see me
I saw the pain in his eyes as he looked at me
Dad, I`m here I`m sorry for the way I died
he just looked up and began to cry
and then he left Please don`t go
It`s like a dream where everything moves slow
Now I`m in a coffin as my family walks to see me
I can`t do this I cry for someone to free me
My homies come up and whisper that they got revenge
They tell my family that they lost a true friend
My mom cries up to god as she holds my hand
Shaking her head like she don`t understand
As they lower me in the dirt my kids scream with tears
Not seeing them grow up is my worst fear
I can`t take it I yell, please let me out
As they put the dirt on my silent shouts
[Chorus: repeat 2X]
In the house of pain
I try to knock and nobody hears me
(nobody hears me)
