like the rain



like the rain

like the rain i'll never change i'll only fall one way
down to the ground the only sound as the people pray
will you miss me? i will miss you , now i'm off the streets
like the rain i'll never change i'll always hit the beats
pitter patter no what matters i can feel the rain
your not to blame don't be ashamed i made my life this way

like the sun i'm your sun the light of your life
you raised a man by single hand you know you did whats right
i made the choice became the voice hit the streets with no fear
thats the reason i was bleeding now i'm laying here
like the rain your tears fall falling sorrow and pain
i may be gone but through my song you'll feel my love again

like the rain i'll never change and i took the fall
i fell down cheap in a heap i will be no more
trange to make a change to do whats right
do not wait for too late now i see the light
all the pain and misery caused along the way
although offended was not intended now i feel the rain.
