Rain - Common, John Legend

The wind against my face, tells me that I must go

Can’t stay around too long before my tracks gonna catch me

When they do, I’ve got to be somewhere in LA

So I can look at the sun and get my thinking done

And if it’s gonna rain tomorrow, let it rain

The last note I sang was indeed a false behave

At some old and shabby bar, I never knew the name

But I knew I could and work that all on my dreams

They tell me find that place, find that place

And if it’s gonna rain tomorrow, let it rain

Let it rain, let it rain

Let it rain, let it rain

Deep in my destination, trying to find my destination

With LA so far away and I’m soaking cold today

Constantly it’s on my mind

I’m only halfway there, I’m not caring how much frustration

Oh, I’ve got to cross this nation

And if it’s gonna rain tomorrow, let it rain

Let it rain, let it rain

Let it rain, let it rain

As the rain falls down from the heavens

Think of how far I came since '87

Took my hustle and made it a weapon

I was always told «in the pain there’s a blessing»

Mistakes that I made, they mirrored the lessons

Talking with God, I asked clearer questions

Dear Lord, is this what I’m destined for?

If so?

Then what am I stressing for?

We tight, then why can’t I let it go?

Everything gon' be alright, it’s more than a metaphor

Let it rain cause it’s ancestral

Cleanse my heart so they can see the best in you

Let it rain and come down visceral

For those no longer here in the physical

Let it rain cause it’s like tears from you

Just like the rain, I’ll do what I’m here to do

Let it rain, I know that it’s purposeful

So that it can service you and return to you

Let it rain, let the rain surround me

And never drown me, I was lost when it found me

Now in a dream is where I’ll be

Imperial reign came down to crown me

Now in a dream is where I’ll be

Imperial reign came down to crown me

Imperial reign came down to crown me

Now in a dream, a dream is where I’ll be

And if it’s gonna rain tomorrow, let it rain

Let it rain, let it rain

Let it rain, let it rain

Let it rain, let it rain

Let it rain, let it rain
