Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Denver, Chicago
[Verse 2]
It's such a long, long train ride
Such a long lonely ride back home
Now I know only I can stop the rain
Now I know only I can stop the rain
[Verse 3]
It's not that we gotta do what we do
It's what we know so to me it ain't nothing but being true but
Now I know only I can stop the rain
[Verse 4]
It doesn't have to be the way it is you say it is
Just because for the past twenty years everyday it is
Now I know only I can stop the rain
[Verse 5]
I wanna be able to walk out my front door
Without worrying about coming in conflict with the law 'cause
Now I know only I can stop the rain
[Verse 6]
If I follow him they'll follow me
And I'll speak life into the words that you can see 'cause
Now I know only I can stop the rain
[Verse 7]
We get away with every day shit
But every day shit catches up to you
When it does you can't say shit
Now I know only I can stop the rain
[Verse 8]
If I don't you will
When I won't you still
What makes us feel like we gots to kill when
Now I know only I can stop the rain
[Verse 9]
How many more lives must we lose
How many more times must we choose to trust these fools
Now I know only I can stop the rain
[Verse 10]
If it ain't broke don't fix it
I gave it to you straight don't mix it
Twist it up for some slick shit
Now I know only I can stop the rain
[Verse 11]
I don't have to talk to it anymore
I don't have to walk to it anymore I'm out the door
Now I know only I can stop the rain
[Verse 12]
I wanna find peace with the lord
I don't want to find a piece with a sword I can't afford to
Now I know only I can stop the rain
[Verse 13]
When every day of my life
Is a constant fight between wrong and right
Now I know only I can stop the rain
[Verse 14]
I thank you Lord for my life
I thank you Lord for keeping it loose when things got tight
Now I know only I can stop the rain
Only I can stop the rain
Only I can stop the pain, yeah
Now I know only I can stop the rain
Only I can stop the rain, stop the rain, yeah
Only I can stop the rain
Only I can stop the rain 'cause the rain falls on me
Now I know only I can stop the rain
Only I can stop the rain
