Now I've been looking for my sunny days, wishing that the clouds would run away
But it's been a minute and I've been watching the time, wishing that God would give me a sign
Open up the doors with the pain behind, cause scratching at the surface, trying to get a check
It's running in a rat race, neck and neck, and I've been taking steps to stack some chips
But I still show mad respect, cause if you don't share blessings, you won't be blessed
I throw the track until we ride tonight, car full of homies cause we all run tight
Reminiscing on the memories, being crazy kids, running from police
Jumping over bushes cause you can't see me, but gladly from these days I'm free
And in these times I see the rainy days, I pray the sun to come away
Yeah!
And in these times I see the rainy days, I pray the sun to come away
Say it will be now
And in these times I see the rainy days, I pray the sun to come away
Let your light shine
And all these kids growing up in the hood, fed so many lies, the truth is misunderstood
And we wonder why these kids don't listen, shots ring out, now a brother's eye is missing
So a kid's main goal is just to bust the cap, running guns blazing with the message that they cock back
A slave to the sword, killer be killed, lurching his hold with my gun
And if that ain't real, the testament is L.A., Duffer, and Brazil
Struggle in the streets for justice speaks, volumes of violence, death and silence
To all the war, and the war for the heart, and many things in common tear your life apart
And in these times I see the rainy days, I pray the sun to come away
Yeah!
And in these times I see the rainy days, I pray the sun to come away
Say it will be now
And in these times I see the rainy days, I pray the sun to come away
Sun come my way!
Many try, but they just can't make it, I'm a million man marching the ground, I'm shaking
There's no gimmicks, I am what I am, the speaker of the heart of the street we are
Cause the heartbeat of the city doesn't live in screams, it's out amongst the people that we see these things
Real people, real life, that's right, the art of conversation, communication
Cause all it really takes is just one voice, to bring about a difference in a world of choice
Don't just speak about it, be about it, break the chain, care as one profess these things, yeah!
In these times I see the rainy days, I pray the sun to come away
Ha ha, yeah!
And in these times I see the rainy days, I pray the sun to come away
Ha ha, yeah!
And in these times I see the rainy days, I pray the sun to come away
Yeah!
And in reality you'll see things sad, we all face struggle, love, laugh, be glad
You gotta move, don't mind the stop signs, get yours, I know that I got mine
I'd rather be true about the things I've seen, rather than faking a fault
Smelling like skink and skunk on the streets
I'd rather be a champ, but let's always hold the title
Now I'm crowned number one against my rivals, yeah
And in these times I see the rainy days
I pray the sun to come away
And in these times I see the rainy days
I pray the sun to come away
And in these times I see the rainy days
I pray the sun to come away
Everybody loves the sunshine
I pray the sun
I pray the sun to come away
I pray the sun
