Thru the Rain (feat. Lé Rose)

I remember walking thru the rain
Mama did this on her own, I've been thru the pain
I remember walking to my nine to five
Working hard, get my family out the bottom line, yeah

I remember walking thru the rain
Mama did this on her own, I've been thru the pain
I remember witnessing my mama cry
Watched my father beat her, man it left me traumatized

Reminiscing on my past life
Man, I used to do this music shit to pass time
I've been thinking about the bad times
I remember sharing water during bath time

I was sleeping on a futon
In the room, in my house, with no roof on
I remember clipping coupons
Couldn't have it if it wasn't in the two-for-one

Didn't think that I could be shit
Only thought it was kid with a dream shit
I know my mama really needs this
Yeah, the sink in the kitchen wasn't heated

Father threatened me to hang up
Saw my mother on the floor, she couldn't stand up
Saw my father wearing handcuffs
Was the moment that I knew I had to man up

I remember walking thru the rain
Mama did this on her own, I've been thru the pain
I remember walking to my nine to five
Working hard, get my family out the bottom line, yeah

I remember walking thru the rain
Mama did this on her own, I've been thru the pain
I remember witnessing my mama cry
Watched my father beat her, man it left me traumatized

I had a falling out with people who I thought were gon' ride for me
You claim that you are my brother, then why ain't you slide for me

Had to learn the hard way, it could be your own
It be them girls on Broadway that'll take your soul
It's hard to have a warm heart when the world's cold
I've been trying to take off, but they got a tight hold

On me
Strongly
Emotions hitting hard, turn me to a zombie
So I pour my cup up, but I still do not feel nothing
Pop a perky, fade away just so I could feel something
So I get high just to fix my lows
Yeah, and I'll get by, that's how life goes

I remember walking thru the rain
Mama did this on her own, I've been thru the pain
I remember walking to my nine to five
Working hard, get my family out the bottom line, yeah

I remember walking thru the rain
Mama did this on her own, I've been through the pain
I remember witnessing my mama cry
Watched my father beat her, man it left me traumatized
