Rain

You know, if only I had one magic wish (one magic wish)

I would wish for no fortune or no fame, no

Gives us (?) more life, more love, more prosperity, yeah"

Oh, yeah yah

Oh, I really wish it would rain (I wish it would rain)

Then maybe it would wash away my pain

I'm feeling in my soul

I pray my sorrows will be long gone (long gone)

Long gone (long gone)

Before the sun rise in the morn

Oh, I wish it would rain (I wish it would rain)

Then maybe it would wash away my pain

I'm feeling in my soul

I pray my sorrows will be long gone (long gone)

Long gone (long gone)

Before the sun rise in the morn

All of my days seems so sad and blue

Need them to be sunny and bright

All of these heartaches

Pain and sorrows

Just keep giving us a fight

I'm always pretending white is black

Black is white

Black is white, oh

I teach them love

Still they fight

I try to imagine

Night is day

Day is night

Day is night

Sometimes I forget my whole life

And so I wish it would rain (I wish it would rain)

Then maybe it would wash away my pain

I'm feeling in my soul

I pray my sorrows will be long long gone

Long long gone

Before the sun rise in the morn

People dying

Children crying

And they have nowhere to run (they have nowhere to run)

In the city, it's a shame and pity

We can't seem to have any fun (can't have no fun, no no no)

But Lord I am hoping

You know I am praying

To be in the valley of the sun (where the sun shines so bright)

But I heard the mother scream (I heard the mother scream)

And I saw a young man fail (?)

There goes another victim to the gun

And so I wish it would rain (I wish it would rain)

Then maybe it would wash away my pain

I'm feeling in my soul

I pray my sorrows will be long long gone

Long long gone

Before the sun rise in the morn

Rise in the morning (rise in the morning)

Rise in the morn (rise in the morn)

Rise in the morning (rise in the morning)

Cause it's a bloodshed

Born in the ghetto

It's a bloodshed

Everywhere I go

But all the tears we cry

Won't ease the sorrow

We'll just have to hope and wish and pray

For a better tomorrow

So I really wish it would rain (I wish it would rain)

Then maybe it will wash away my pain

I'm feeling in my soul

I pray my sorrows will be long gone (long gone)

Long gone (long gone)

Before the sun rise in the morn

Oh, I wish it would rain (I wish it would rain)

Then maybe it would wash away my pain

I'm feeling in my soul

I pray my sorrows will be long long gone

Long long gone

Before the sun rise in the morn

Rise in the morning (rise in the morning)

Rise in the morn (rise in the morn)

Rise in the morning (rise in the morning)

Rise in the morn

Rise in the morning

"Yeah, man"
