As I sit down to begin this song
We're hearing gunshots and ticking bombs
We're seeing people begging on the streets
And all the children without basic needs
Rain, rain; go away
And don't come back another day
We've got our backs against the wall
Help us rise above it all
No matter who you are
C'mon and take a stand
No matter where you're from
C'mon and take a stand
People yelling don't shoot
Others crying don't loot
Well then obviously the truth
Has to lie between the two
We're just praying for a change
To rid of all the hate
To clean up all the stains
If you're with us let's bring
Sunshine to the rain
Sunshine to the rain
As I come back to pen out this verse
I'm mad at these grown men trafficking little girls
I'm raged by disease stealing all these lives
Will there ever be peace from all this strife?
Rain, rain; go away
And don't come back another day
We've got our backs against the wall
Help us rise above it all
No matter who you are
C'mon and take a stand
No matter where you're from
C'mon and take a stand
People yelling don't shoot
Others crying don't loot
Well then obviously the truth
Has to lie between the two
We're just praying for a change
To rid of all the hate
To clean up all the stains
If you're with us let's bring
Sunshine to the rain
