[Dub Muzik, Swifty McVay, Obie Trice, Royce da 5'9" - The Rain lyrics]
I'm a product of when a nigga momma gives up
Crying, laying in the trash with the lid shut
Ain't got no family, my mind is tender
My daddy's invisible, my moms is Brenda
If I survive I'ma grow into
What society considers trash
The rope is to us that mean'
I'm hangin' myself by livin'
The noose is gettin' murdered
That or going to prison
My mind's controlled 'fore I
Learn mind control
What you call livin' life, I call dyin' slow
I'm genetically predisposed
The reaper the only thing that
Can ease my soul, freezin' cold
Feelin' like I was givin' life
And if I take it, at least I chose
I probably be in Heaven when the pain stops
'Till then all I'm hearin'
Is wind and raindrops
Precipitation got my mind trippin'
Got me visualizin' suicide
Take away from how I'm livin'
They say I'm God's children
Just know the odds that I dodge
Everyday don't oblige with him
Uh, the city is drug
Makin' me a livin' though
Playin' tug of war with life, momma
Holdin' on a onion, hustlin' out a bungalow
Eyes designed to keep in mind
That there's a end road
Ambition in us in a N-O
Livin' conditions criminal
Intuition he gon' see a mortician, uh
Sicker than a kinfolk
Stiffin' their position
Probably be in Hell when the pain pop
Till then all I'm hearin'
Is wind and raindrops
My life remains raw, containin' pain
Tryna hang on
Everyday it be rainin' chainsaws
Tryna maintain a relationship with
God, while Satan is gasolin' in my drawers
I gotta stay strong
I'm wastin' paper, ladies in labor
You tryna take away my forty eight
Acres and strip me naked my life's sacred
You never see me fakin' until I make it
I'm hopin' that God open that
Gate before I break it
Promises after promises
You'd think my momma done raise me
To have no common sense
I keep swimmin' in obamanation
Drinks with hatred
Bottle after bottle of mixed vodka
Click-clackin' a forty fifth
I know I'm gifted, but I
Won't use it for shit, by my own interests
As soon as I get rid
Of that selfish, bold instinct, i
I be holdin' the umbrella
Hidin' from raindrops
Crying, laying in the trash with the lid shut
Ain't got no family, my mind is tender
My daddy's invisible, my moms is Brenda
If I survive I'ma grow into
What society considers trash
The rope is to us that mean'
I'm hangin' myself by livin'
The noose is gettin' murdered
That or going to prison
My mind's controlled 'fore I
Learn mind control
What you call livin' life, I call dyin' slow
I'm genetically predisposed
The reaper the only thing that
Can ease my soul, freezin' cold
Feelin' like I was givin' life
And if I take it, at least I chose
I probably be in Heaven when the pain stops
'Till then all I'm hearin'
Is wind and raindrops
Precipitation got my mind trippin'
Got me visualizin' suicide
Take away from how I'm livin'
