Lyrics

Dear God, whassup, it?s your boy talking to you
I know you?ve been seeing all this shit I?m going through
I turn to you, cuz I can?t do it alone
Without you by my side, all my movements is wrong
All I?m doing is harm, hope you can guide me
Save a man from dying, cuz my heart is crying
Here on earth, it?s like nothing?s going right, see
Might be, that we need some love and stop fighting
Yeah, I got problems, and the world?s got um greater
Some I?m saying a prayer I hope everyone will hear
And it?s so clear, that I can fight through the tears
And claim in the game, that this is my fucking year
The rain?s falling right here?the whole world?s getting wet behind the ears
Help me fight my fears, conquer my enemies
It?s the M the C, this world will remember me

Chorus:
I can feel it (when the rain starts falling down)
I can make it (when the rain starts falling down)
And I feel like giving up (when the rain starts falling down)
But I haven?t had enough (when the rain starts falling down)

I?ve met so many women, and most of um nonsense
Most of um orthodontists, they work with they mouth
And not very often, I meet a girl that I can call when,
I?m feeling down, I just need somebody to hold
Someone to call my own, to call on the phone
When my days rough, I thought I found her three times
The first time was lies, the second time, she did nothing but cry
Third one caught my eye, started writing a rhyme
About how cute she wuz, and how I thought she was fly
Sometimes I wonder how I, could be so damn blind
Cuz this whole time, she was still in love with another guy
Wanted to be in his place, and I wanted to take his
When my heart rips open the blood fills these pages
Till they?re filled with anger, yeah, will it ever let up?
Or will I be forced to stop, give up? C?mon

Chorus Repeated

Lord, all this bloodshed in the world
Are we forgetting the world?
Are we letting the world, go down the toilet and watch it swirl
I swear that we never know, something until it?s gone
That idiot?s dropping bombs from Osama to Saddam
Now he?s talking bout Iran, cuz they wanna make weapons
But he should look around, cuz we already got weapons
More than anyone I?m guessing, enough to blow up the globe
Suddenly we trying to control, everyone and make um our own
All these Christians contradicting themselves
Persecuting Islam, they don?t know what its about
Thinking it?s suddenly equal between all the races
Cuz on the front page is, a united nation
Read between the lines, you might find a war raging
I don?t want it to happen, but I?m not standing back waiting

Chorus Repeated Til' Fade w/ad libs
