Story behind the song
I made this song after losing one of my best friend's to a car accident. It's just about 2004 and how it kinda took a turn for the worse. It's about pain, confusion with why things hafta be like this, and tryin to keep fighting.
Lyrics
Verse 1:
As the rain falls down/
As it rains, as it rains, as it rains/
This life if drivin me insane/
Wakin up to new struggles each day/
Fightin to keep the stress and pain away/
Keep it far from my side, but keep my friends close/
Cuz they always down to ride/
Along with my heavenly host/
God the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost yo/
I'm liftin you up, liftin you high as I can go/
When this world gets me down, my heart always knows where to turn/
But sometimes my feet don't ever seem to learn/
To let go and let God/
But God it's hard, I'm tryin/
My hardest, but sometimes the burden's too large/
I'm fightin/
Battling demons and the tears that I'm cryin/
Lyin in bed, thinkin about the past/
As the rain falls down/
Chorus:
Tell me what it is that caused/
All this rain, all this pain/
Tell me how I'm 'possed to move on/
Tell me how I'm suppossed to fight/
The lonely nights, the wrong for right/
Tell me if it can be won at all/
repeat
Verse 2:
Each day I think about the way that I'm livin/
The way that I'm gettin by with what I'm givin/
I'm struggling to live a life worthy of the grace you've given me/
Through it all your presence is what strengthens me/
But still I stray from the path that you set fourth/
Even though you're the only source that helps me stay the course/
I try my best/
But sometimes my best ain't good enough/
Till nothin's left/
God please fill up this emptiness/
Left behind when the love of my life left me/
But I'm stayin strong/
Cuz there's still some fight in me/
I'm never givin up/
Never layin down/
No matter how hard this loneliness gets/
You'll never see me frown/
Gotta keep my spirits high/
And stay focused on me, myself and I/
You'll see/
Gotta right this ship so I can/
So I can live like the man/
The man I was before/
My emotions had me face down on the canvas, on the floor/
But I got myself together/
Regathered my composure to hold up in any kind of weather/
Until it's over/
Chorus
Verse 3:
Damn this year just keeps gettin worse and worse/
It started out so good but then I got my bubble burst/
Right when I think/
That I see hope in the clearin/
I'm gettin word that my boy Frank/
Ain't even breathin/
He's gone, he left us/
So young that it's wrong/
God help me understand/
What the hell is going on/
I'm hurtin inside/
With no outlet for my pain/
No releif in sight/
As it rains, as it rains/
I need something to make/
This world seem worth it/
Cuz even though nobody's perfect/
No mother deserves this/
Losin her only son/
So early it's bogus/
If I'm hurtin this much/
I can't imagine what his folks is/
Going through, know You/
Took their pride and joy/
Man their one and only boy/
What solution do I employ/
To heal the wounds left behind/
When you breathed that last breath/
As you crossed that center line/
Your memories live kept/
Deep inside my heart/
Forever they'll stay/
For as long as we're apart/
Till the day I pass away/
Chorus
Verse 4:
Rest in peace my homie/
I'mah be there soon/
When we meet in heaven/
We'll be singin a different toon/
We gonna miss you and it hurts/
To see somebody so young gettin buried in the dirt/
We'll never forget you/
I'll wear these scars forever/
Losin you dogg/
Caused a pain I cannot measure/
Help me stay strong/
And get my shit together man/
I love you Frank/
Even though I don't understand God's plan/
