When It Rains (feat. Royaltone)

You see the pain in my eyes
Everybody telling lies
But I'm not even surprised
Wanted to be great ever since I was four
But a nigga grew up poor
When it rains then it pours
You see the pain in my eyes
Everybody telling lies
But I'm not even surprised
Wanted to be great ever since I was four
But a nigga grew up poor
When it rains then it pours

Rain from the sky let it fall
Go to open gyms cause I always wanna ball
Grew up a lil nigga everybody getting tall
But momma said it's okay cause it was never my fault
She said they'll use your kindness for weakness
Peep this son stay away from that street shit
And I should've listened cause I'm always on defense
Sinning all my life I don't even wanna repent
One too many times I almost met the grim reaper
High school days I was pissing off my teachers
I said put me in the game they tried to put on the bleachers
A couple years I hear my voice on their speakers
I went from nobody to somebody
I'm the same kid they all tried to make fun of me
I'm on top I see 'em all falling right under me
What goes around comes back around they ain't getting nun from me

You see the pain in my eyes
Everybody telling lies
But I'm not even surprised
Wanted to be great ever since I was four
But a nigga grew up poor
When it rains then it pours
You see the pain in my eyes
Everybody telling lies
But I'm not even surprised
Wanted to be great ever since I was four
But a nigga grew up poor
When it rains then it pours

They say when it rains it pours
I'm not a stripper but I keep a pole
Grew up on the corner
Seen some bodies hit the floor
Outlined white chalk like a nigga hit a pose
Pull up like I'm deeboo got them niggas on froze
Grew up robbing niggas that's all a nigga known
Tryna get this money a nigga never had shit
When I got the bread I was quick to cop shit
Then I hit the block like I never got it
Niggas asking how you cop them red bottoms
I told 'em the game can't be told only sold
When I got the bid niggas acted like I told
They was acting like I didn't know code
Never been a rat I can never fold
Let them tell the story the truth won't be told
Telling white lies like a nigga won't know

You see the pain in my eyes
Everybody telling lies
But I'm not even surprised
Wanted to be great ever since I was four
But a nigga grew up poor
When it rains then it pours
You see the pain in my eyes
Everybody telling lies
But I'm not even surprised
Wanted to be great ever since I was four
But a nigga grew up poor
When it rains then it pours
