| Uh, uh I’m seeing bright lights and big cities |
| Too many ugly people sitting pretty |
| Uh, I’m seeing good people, down and out |
| And these days a good guy seems out of style |
| Sometimes it’s hard to crack a smile when I look around |
| My school used to hang a crucifix but took it down |
| I guess it’s 'cause some of these priests are even crooked now |
| You talk religion now a days and man, they just put you down |
| Like, what the hell? |
| I don’t know who to trust, I’m so over protective |
| They say the youth is depressed. They’re over energetic |
| Prescribing Ritalin to fill 'em with anti-depressants |
| My brother’s been on them since adolescent and he’s still dependent on it |
| Honest, we live a life of solace |
| Marriage is a joke, a TV show for profit |
| I’ve seen the double crosser |
| I’ve seen the people causing other people paining problems just to make a |
| dollars of 'em |
| I see society, rioting, violently |
| Fighting for the peace, huh, don’t they see the irony? |
| We living in a dirty world and it needs to be refreshed |
| So the rain keeps falling down to wash away the mess |
| I’m blessed |
| I’m blessed, yes |
| If half of the world is amazed by things that we find so true |
| Find so true |
| And out of that world the amazing amounts to just me and you |
| Me and you |
| Could it be that we ain’t from here |
| Ain’t from here |
| I’m pray prayin' for the rain to wash away |
| Hoping that the rain will wash away |
| I see a lot of people losing faith |
| Uh, I see the media producing hate |
| Got me thinking I should pack it in and move away |
| Now a days, me and my neighbors don’t communicate |
| Too many people are afraid. Who’s supposed to lead us? |
| We don’t trust the politicians, they just lie and cheat us |
| Treating us like animals like lions and cheetahs |
| Crucify society like they did to Jesus. Can’t believe it |
| Don’t know who to trust. Nobody but us |
| The people policing the streets are even too corrupt |
| I see them fighting for the wealth, fighting for religion |
| I seem 'em begging for forgiveness but they won’t forgive 'em |
| What kind of life we living? Huh? |
| The world is dirty, needs to be refreshed |
| So the rain falls down to wash away the mess |
| Drown the wicked ones, while the pure stay afloat |
| Is this the end or the beginning? I don’t know |
| It sounds familiar though |
| I’m blessed |
| I’m blessed, yes |
| If half of the world is amazed by things that we find so true |
| Find so true |
| And out of that world the amazing amounts to just me and you |
| Me and you |
| Could it be that we ain’t from here |
| Ain’t from here |
| I’m pray prayin' for the rain to wash away |
| Hoping that the rain will wash away |
| What if the rain poured down tonight? |
| (Alright, alright alright) |
| Would you wake up in a different light? |
| (Alright, alright alright) |
| Or would you change, would you change, would you change your ways? |
| (Alright, alright alright) |
| So let it rain, let it rain, let it wash away |
| (Alright, alright alright) |
| Yes |
| Uh, is it religion? Is it race? |
| Is it jealousy or hate? |
| Is it just the way we’re made? |
| Or could it be the way we’re raised? Let it rain |
| Noah’s Arc. |
