Yes, you will pay social security tax on wages reported on your W-2, The tax will be withheld by your employer and sent to the social security department. If you have self-employment over $400 you will be required to pay social security tax on that income. This TurboTax link will guide you through the process of paying your self-employment tax. How do I report income from self-employment?

Or are you asking if you pay Federal taxes on your Social Security benefits? Yes, if your total income exceeds a certain amount. But no more than 85% of them are taxable. State taxation of Soc Sec benefits varies.
