(feat. Mo B. Dick) |
|
[Chorus: Mia X & Mo B. Dick] |
|
Sometimes I love the rainy days |
|
So my mind and this pain can drift away |
|
Sometimes I love the rainy days |
|
So my mind and this pain can drift away |
|
Sometimes I love the rainy days |
|
So my mind and this pain can drift away |
|
Sometimes I love the rainy days |
|
[Mia X] |
|
Tears from Heaven rain down and cleanse me |
|
I'm out of control sometimes so much stuff's on my mind |
|
I'm trying to find the right path to walk on |
|
Maintain and be strong but I don't know how long |
|
I can keep on, sleep on it |
|
My partner said |
|
And then nightmares of troubled times invade the space in my head |
|
I'd rather be dead often than to deal with the pain and pressure |
|
So let the rain fall and take it away all forever |
|
But you can never be rid of troubled times |
|
You can run away, try ot block it out but they gon' stay, stand firm |
|
So we gotta learn how to deal with it |
|
Look life in the eye be real with it (I'm trying) |
|
I'm still getting bits and pieces of womanhood |
|
Finally starting to realize that being grown ain't all good |
|
I would rather be eight at my mom's place |
|
Cuddled and sheltered from the pain |
|
But for now I'ma leave it with the rain |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Verse 2] |
|
Please let it rain before my man comes home |
|
Maybe he'll wanna talk and practice between my thighs |
|
Instead of on my eyes, while my |
|
I going throught this I keep asking myself |
|
Does somebody really love you, taking blows at you |
|
Controlling you, and do you really love yourself |
|
I don't know, it's like I can't think for myself anymore |
|
I'm looking at the door, Lord please give me the courage to step |
|
And if I do will I regret the day I left |
|
Is he the best thing to ever happen to me |
|
And is it a minor flaw when he leaves scars after beating me |
|
Or can it be my self-eteem left with the first bruise |
|
Lord, will I ever be a victim on the evening news, I'm so confused |
|
I've got more blues than B.B. |
|
He keeps on pushing and hitting and shoving |
|
And then claiming that he loves me |
|
For life, trying to call me his wife |
|
No rings of course |
|
So can I give all this pain to the rain, let it pour |
|
[Chorus] |
|
Will I ever, ever, ever in my ruggedy life |
|
Live in a happy home and be a happy man's wife |
|
No cheating, no fights, connected to wealth |
|
And proud to look in the mirror and love myself |
|
I think not, my hand full of dreams is all I got |
|
One wishing that the rain could make it all stop |
|
Top it off more, all the exit doors are locked |
|
Click, change up got my brain detained and stained |
|
What am I to do, Lord please talk to me |
|
This bottle of Valiums keeps calling me |
|
[Thunder claps and rain falling] |
|
And he spoke, gave a sister award of hope |
|
I'm bout to take my life back for sho' |
|
No more, waiting for things to happen for me |
|
Heaven's tears got me seeing things clearly, I love the rain |
|
[Chorus: with Mia X ad-libs] to fade] |
