Rain and Wind

[Verse 1] First off, I know your situation but what is quitting gonna prove Your heart was in the right place your head just made the wrong move It's safe to assume that that's the world we all relate to Somehow you gravitate to the ones who use and hate you Still looking for a break through, felt like this is childhood Not many people willing to listen to you but I would It's natural to wish you had a friend that you could call up Your life was rough I understand why you gotta Wall up Because folks lie, anything you wanna hear they say it They gain your trust only to turn around and betray it And left permanent wounds on your heart but you managed And at the end nobody helped you repair the damage I wish I had the power to visit moments in time And eliminate all painful events out of your mind Because I'd do it in a second if that would make you whole again Like you used to be before you let those dirty vultures in [Hook] If I was rain I'd wash away Bad memories of sad yesterdays I wish that I could be the wind I'd blow away the pain within [Verse 2] You ask yourself why'd I fall victim to this evil The fact is, bad things do happen to good people And just to prove that I know how you feel to be exact I'm a run you through the process cause I've been where you at See first the problem hit, then people started to deny you And Then it reached a point where you was asking God why you But keep love inside you, we know you not an angel It's good to get advice but only you can change you You say yeah but it's painful, but that will soon disperse Remember most things that give happiness come with pain first Then the cries transform to rejoices in our voices Let's benefit from not be the victims of our choices Now take this mirror, look into it, see beyond the flesh Call the greatness that's inside you out and let it manifest What was done is in the past so quit trying to relive it The only power that it has is the power that you give it [Hook] If I was rain I'd wash away Bad memories of sad yesterdays I wish that I could be the wind I'd blow away the pain within [Verse 3] Don't get rattled no matter what rough road that you travel Female or male emotional foundations are fragile The mother who passed you to another after she had you You can't expect to come away unscarred in life's battles There's no contentment, only regret and resentment For those who showed ill intents since you was an infant Getting high will never last gotta try and let it pass You need a mental cleansing just like a dianetics class Now, how many people could of resisted that slight urge If somebody could of got to them and spoke the right words And it's clear now your problems won't just up and disappear now And ain't no use in wishing you could switch it because you hear now These young soldiers in the streets living fearless And I'm a realist I know exactly what you trying to deal with And that's the reason why these words are like a prayer session For all the trauma I ask God to give them their blessings [Hook] If I was rain I'd wash away Bad memories of sad yesterdays I wish that I could be the wind I'd blow away the pain within
