The Rain
(Dmx)
Let’s start chicago… it’s a such lonely, lonely to in my head…such a long lonely night at home
{*singing*} now i know, only i, can stop the rain
Uh.. uh.. uh, uh, uh
{*singing*} now i know, only i, can stop the rain
It's not that we gotta do what we do
It's what we know, so to me it ain't nuttin but bein true but
{*singing*} now i know, only i, can stop the rain
It doesn't have to be the way it is, you say it is
Just because for the past 20 years, every day it is
{*singing*} now i know, only i, can stop the rain
I wanna be able to walk out my front door
Without worryin about comin in conflict with the law, cause
{*singing*} now i know, only i, can stop the rain
If i follow him, they'll follow me
And i'll speak life into the word that you can see
{*singing*} now i know, only i, can stop the rain
We get away with everyday shit, but everyday shit
Catches up to you and when it does you can't say shit!
{*singing*} now i know, only i, can stop the rain
If i don't, you will, when i won't, you steal
What makes it feel like we gots to kill?
{*singing*} now i know, only i, can stop the rain
How many more lives must we lose?
How many more times must we choose to trust these fools?
{*singing*} now i know, only i, can stop the rain
If it ain't broke, don't fix it
I gave it to you straight don't mix it twist it up on some slick shit
{*singing*} now i know, only i, can stop the rain
I don't have to talk to it any more
I don't have to walk to it any more, i'm out the door {*slam*}
{*singing*} now i know, only i, can stop the rain
I wanna find peace with the lord
I don't wanna find a beast with the sword, i can't afford to
{*singing*} now i know, only i, can stop the rain
When every day of my life
Is a constant fight between wrong and right
{*singing*} now i know, only i, can stop the rain
I thank you lord for my life
Thank you lord for keepin it loose when things got tight
{*singing*} now i know, only i, can stop the rain
Only i can stop the rain
Only i can stop the pain, yeahh
{*singing*} now i know, only i, can stop the rain
Only i can stop, the rain, stop, the rain, yeahh - what?
... grrrr, only i (only i) can stop (can stop) the rain (the rain)
Only i can stop the rain, cause the rain falls on me
{*singing*} now i know, only i, can stop the rain
Only i can stop the rain
