Red Rain

Red Rain

Lightning strikes and there’s nowhere to run / fake as gangster no bullets in yo gun,

Tonight’s weather report also calls for thunder and rain / paper thin as nigga played in this player’s game,

Red rain is the drink you swig / as you stumble towards a stranger’s door / the closer you get/ the more you drink / until yo ass is kissing the floor,

The real deal crew is the clique you claim / street creds and murderous fame / a solo move in the middle of the night / fist clinched but unable to fight,

A sound is heard in the distance / and you pray that help is near / you call for your mama/you pray for your baby / your mind is gripped with fear,

Unprepared for the thunder / unprepared for the rain / unprepared for the heartbreak / life loss in this murderous game,

Unprepared for the thunder / unprepared for the rain / unprepared for evil / the streets and it’s eternal pain,

Pour a little liquor for me / the salute to a fallen solider / a street hero for exactly one week / now unable to even grow one day older,

True to the game and the street / since I was a little boy / the Sig 9 was black and heavy / and was my first illegal street toy,

The warning signs were there / but the streets just kept calling my name / now I’ve lost my life / first ballot eligible for the street life hall of fame… I was…

Unprepared for the thunder / unprepared for the rain / unprepared for the heartbreak / life loss in this murderous game,

Unprepared for the thunder / unprepared for the rain/unprepared for evil / the streets and it’s eternal pain,

Bury me in my fitted and make sure my Jordan’s are clean / tell my mamma that I love her / keep some souvenir tape / from the deadly crime place scene,

Heaven will not open its gates / this I know all too well / too much murder, sinning and mayhem / I now stroll the streets of hell,

Don’t cry for me I made my bed / and this is where I must lay / unfair to some / most fair to others / for the unprepared we all must pray,

Street life is oh so real / they play the game for keeps / some rain will fall / you must stand tall / avoid laying six feet deep,

Unprepared for the thunder / unprepared for the rain / unprepared for the heartbreak / life loss in this murderous game,

Unprepared for the thunder / unprepared for the rain/unprepared for evil / the streets and it’s eternal pain,
