The Rain

Verse 1 (Warren Britt)

Yo when the rain drops
My reign will never stop
Shine the light for the future the revolution given props
Ressurected
Ancestors thoughts on how we'll make it
Through the treacherous roads miles trials and tribulations
I'm facing what was given to me
Images pleas of help
Lord have mercy on my soul on bended knee
What's right was never kept a secret
That's why I speak it
Generations of Aggravation Walking with me
If I Was to cry right here and now, woul you still love me
Crissing these crossroad while this world is ugly
I leave my legs in my child's name
While this fireless flame circle circulates full of agony and pain
Daddy told me bout them old days
Momma said there'd be days like this
Now I see through the mist
Regulate before presenting the presence of my presence
His story repeats it's self
I'm guiding the adolescence

Chorus: (Adrienne Mack-Davis)

When the rain drops on my window, I know it's gonna be okay, be okay, when the sun shines again, I can honestly say, turn your frown upside down, we will find a way, then I'll look at you and say, everything's gonna be okay.

Verse 2: (Warren Britt)

Why are we running around?
Minds confused like everyone is against us and we have nothing to lose
Some people choose to use the problems that are brought upon us
So always believe in yourself
(Keep ya head up)
Now what's really killing our youth? Them or us
Well it's a little bit of both because the money breeds lust we need to show unity
To gain growth in our community
So as of now from this day forward it's you and me
I never walked a mile in your shoes
I played the blues on a broken piano like I was writing the news
So please lend me your lessons
I show my elevation as a being in my past life counting these blessing
How come we can not unify, if it's truly U-N-I?
Barricades causing death final breaths and true lies I'm not a rapper I'm a leader.
A silent intellectual signifying my history for all of my people.

Chorus: (Adrienne Mack-Davis)

When the rain drops on my window, I know it's gonna be okay, be okay, When the sun shines again, I can honestly say,
Turn your frown upside down, We will find a way,
Then I'll look at you and say, Everything's gonna be okay

Verse 3: (Warren Britt)

And to the women, for thou I giveth my rib, stay beautiful as you grown and continue to live
It can be hard sometimes but after pain there's joy
Y'all bless the world with these precious baby girls and boys
With everything you go through stand firm and tall,
never fall maintain and rise amongst them all
Cause if I lose you I know I'll lose a piece of myself
And so I wish you happiness peace and knowledge of self
Know that your worth more than any piece of stone or cloth
Plus I'll always have your back whatever road you walk
Talk with you get some of that stress out of your zone
When you need assistance know you're never alone
Where gonna get through this storm together bond together
Even through bad weather our ties will never sever
We will know what to do, and how to do better
Pray for the next day and i'ma love you forever.
