Rain Lyrics

Now I know only I can stop the rain
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

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 twenty years, every day it is

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

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, 'cause

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

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?

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?

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

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

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

Now I know only I can stop the rain

When every day of my life
Is a constant fight between wrong and right

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

Now I know only I can stop the rain
Only I can stop the rain
Only I can stop the pain, yea
Now I know only I can stop the rain
Only I can stop the rain, stop the rain, yea

Only I can stop the rain
Only I can stop the rain, 'cause the rain falls on me
Now I know only I can stop the rain
Only I can stop the rain
