PROZAK - Under The Rain lyrics

rate me

It's been a long time coming

And we stop singing We Shall Overcome and negro spirituals, we are no longer humming

Just what are we becoming?

It pulls a piece of life up out of me

That for little or nothing you willin to battle me

And actually it's not an act

We unruly, shootin up schools, doin the fool, we got a knack

I been carryin guns since I was knee high

Till it all stopped, I stoped and now I'm watchin all my dogs die

This is the beginning of armageddon

We get high regardless, we Godless so how high are we gettin?

And we stay iced out in this land we on

See errantly on you, losin your arm over the diamond

Try em on, here go my shoes

Now check the ways of racism and be the first one singin the blues

Gods children are on every land we rhyme on

We share the same sky and gotta die, that's just what we got in common. Come on

We livin up under the rain... can't stop it from fallin down

We livin up another storm... can't stop it from movin... hey

We livin up under the rain... can't stop it from fallin down

We livin up another storm... can't stop it from movin... hey

They say you can not judge a book by it's cover

But it seems somehow we be judgin one another because of cover

Thinkin about the prejudice that plagues the human race

Even in God's grace, the people ain't safe with all this hatin that we face, now check it

They say that Martin Luther King, he had a dream

But a dream is all it was because a race still comes between us

We never did learn, watchin the crosses burn

In his grave he would toss and turn

How many times can he return? Now we must...

Learn to stick together

And whether the stormy weather

We can never survive unless we can coexist together

A nation that is united, but all of it's people divided

No more, we can not hide it, politically tryin to justify it

We livin up under the rain... can't stop it from fallin down

We livin up another storm... can't stop it from movin... hey

We livin up under the rain... can't stop it from fallin down

We livin up another storm... can't stop it from movin... hey

We livin up under the rain... can't stop it from fallin down

We livin up another storm... can't stop it from movin... hey

We livin up under the rain... can't stop it from fallin down

We livin up another storm... can't stop it from movin... hey
