The Rain

JJ Demon

[Verse]
Yo, I'm dyin' on the front steps
I'm bleeding out slow, call the medics?
Why would I need 'em now? No
I'm leaving now, go
I failed you and I hate it
The dream becomes a nightmare the second you awaken
I am quaking in a city made for idiots
The streets like the veins of a dope fiend, it's hideous
I wrote a verse to shake the angels from the heavens
Like apples from a tree, hear the cackling? It's me
Modern holy war, dodge shrapnel and debris
You wanna spend your every Sunday in a chapel on you knees?
Chilly from the breeze, Philly is diseased
Brilliant from afar
But when God answers one prayer, a million get ignored
Waiting for euthanasia
Cause religion is a drug and God's a hallucination
So without further ado
I am the haunting of a home within your heart
And it's deeper than floating laundry
A tawdry affair, you're kissin' the snake on the tongue
Oil addicted, and we're sippin' it straight from the drum
Priests raping the young
Republicans telling us all we need to do is pray
And it'll go away, yeah
I saw the glory that was Rome in a hurricane
From the second story of my home
Drank a second Hurricane 40 all alone
Feeling like I'm burning in a Purgatory on my own
Further more in the murder for sport capital
Where kids carry burners, cause murder is more practical
We're cutting deeper, an experiment in pain
Where children get lost like tears in the rain
It's an experiment in pain where the parents get lost
Like tears in the rain
Wrapped up in the fear and the blame
And the true meaning is lost, like tears in the rain
You ever felt like nobody was listening?
Like a baby tryna scream "No!" at his own christening (No!)
And the truth is but a whisper in the wind
And the lies are getting hotter 'til they blister on the skin
I was a sleepy-eyed dark spirit in the classroom
What is that hiding behind the mirror in the bathroom?
Medicine or monster? Stumble out and grab you
I walked the hallowed halls of Hell so that you don't have to
Creep theater zero eleven
We all just wanna be vampires so we can stay young forever
I wanna touch eternity twice
I wanna fit in, but I'm mean, I mean, I'd learn to be nice
Record labels say that going to jail's earning me stripes
Should I record a thousand songs and get 30 to life?
Is that cool?
Would I sell then? Get on the radio? (Yeah)
Maybe all my dreams would come true?
They say if you're the one with the best dope
All the fiends come to you
But if they don't know your name
Now where's the freedom to choose?
My father left me like a bastard in a basket
I still can see my best friend plastered in a casket
Without him here, I'm feeling weird and alone again
Like a piece of me's missing, my soul's got a hole in it
Heroin powder in hour glass
Ring side seats to watch our loved ones get eaten
We're devoured last
My girl thinks I'm going crazy, but ain't it odd
The worst evils are committed in the name of God
Blind faith, an experiment in pain
Where fathers get lost, like tears in the rain
An experiment in pain where my best friend was lost
Like a tear in the rain
Wrapped up in the fear and the shame
And really just got lost, like a tear in the rain
Whether you believe or not, we're all just tears in the rain
Whether you believe or not, we're all just tears in the rain (Whether you believe or not)
Can you see us? We're all just tears in the rain (We're all just tears in the rain )
