[Chorus: Mia X and Mo B. Dick]
Sometimes I love the rainy days
So my mind & this pain can drift away
Sometimes I love the rainy days
So my mind & this pain can drift away
Sometimes I love the rainy days
So my mind & this pain can drift away
Sometimes I love the rainy days
[Mia X]
Tears from Heaven rain down & cleanse me
I am out of control sometimes so much stuff´s on my mind
I am trying to find the right path to walk on
Main´tain & be strong but I do not 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 would rather be dead often than to deal with the pain & pressure
So let the rain fall & 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´ve got to learn how to deal with it
Look life in the eye be real with it (I am trying)
I am still getting bits & pieces of womanhood
Finally starting to realize that being grown aint all good
I´d rather be eight at my mom´s place
Cuddled & sheltered from the pain
But for now I ama leave it with the rain
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
Please let it rain before my man comes home
Maybe he will want to talk & 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, & do you really love yourself
I do not know, it is like I cannot think for myself anymore
I am 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 1st bruise
Lord, will I ever be a victim on the evening news, I am so confused
I have got more blues than B.B.
He keeps on pushing & hitting & 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 & be a happy man´s wife
No cheating, no fights, connected to wealth
And proud to look in the mirror & 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 & stained
What am I to do, Lord please talk to me
This bottle of Valiums keeps calling me
[Thunder claps & rain falling]
And he spoke, gave a sister award of hope
I am 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
