[00:10.976]Rain love on me
[00:13.757]Rain love on me
[00:16.066]Open up your eyes and finally see
[00:19.101]
[00:20.070]My grandma passed away at the top of last year
[00:22.948]At the funeral drowning cause I couldn’t hold back tears
[00:25.831]But after all that’s happened this past year
[00:28.247]Part of me sees grace in the fact that she’s not here
[00:30.944]As a grandson this statement’s a fact
[00:32.831]No elderly should ever be victim of such a heinous attack
[00:35.805]Prey on the weak only cowards would take advantage of that
[00:38.510]No more staying meek it’s time to take a stand and react
[00:41.046]A simple trip to the market thought the streets were safe
[00:43.598]Turned targets I speak up for my people’s sake
[00:46.189]From this pandemic I’m hopeful that we’ll see escape
[00:48.852]Until then love’s the only vaccine for hate
[00:51.578]Now when my folks leave the house it’s quite the norm
[00:54.060]My mind’s flooded with thoughts of what might go wrong
[00:56.745]Truthfully I wish I didn't have to write this song
[00:59.242]But it’s only right I recite it since this mic is on
[01:02.056]
[01:02.943]What if we went a little bit out of our way to stop the hatred
[01:08.268](Imagine that)
[01:09.387]Stop the hatred
[01:13.354]What if we took a little time out of our day to stop the hatred
[01:18.968](Could it be)
[01:19.667]Stop the hatred
[01:21.533]Rain love on me
[01:22.859]
[01:23.026]He cold like Antarctica
[01:24.399]It don’t matter if you black and white says the man in the mirror
[01:26.823]The squad’s facing the terror
[01:28.367]I’m talking mother father sister brother grandma and grandpapa
[01:31.675]All doomed cause of skin color
[01:33.510]Paranoid like my mind playing tricks on this ghetto boy
[01:36.236]So I gotta scream for my mama like I’m George Floyd
[01:38.885]Now I’m all in linen like John imagining
[01:41.031]But he ain’t give peace a chance he took 8 lives with him
[01:44.067]Where the love go still unanswered
[01:46.817]Politicians they be flipping Gabby Douglas
[01:49.051]Divide so they can conquer then they chain our ancestors
[01:52.172]Come together like the Beatles remastered
[01:54.805]
[01:55.172]What if we went a little bit out of our way to stop the hatred
[02:00.571](Imagine that)
[02:01.418]Stop the hatred
[02:05.613]What if we took a little time out of our day to stop the hatred
[02:10.927](Could it be)
[02:12.003]Stop the hatred
[02:13.711]Rain love on me
[02:14.917]
[02:15.085]It’s new footage every other day every bit of it hard to watch
[02:18.212]I’m talking to my son he’s eight listen to your pops
[02:20.951]I said don’t fall for the bait the actions of a few
[02:23.584]Don’t reflect the nature of an entire race
[02:26.006]Maybe the past is full of lessons but we missed it
[02:28.336]History shows indeed tension has existed
[02:31.078]Between the two communities but here’s a fact
[02:33.371]Beyond colors were humans not just yellow or black
[02:35.846]Like Chris Rock I ain’t liberal or conservative inside
[02:38.656]I just know the enemy would love to further the divide
[02:41.485]Media don’t care how the story is told
[02:43.629]They’re more concerned with how the story is sold
[02:45.799]Preconceived notions make it harder to see together
[02:48.856]There’s much power Rush Hour look at Carter and Lee
[02:51.484]Hopefully through dialogue we’ll start to agree
[02:53.932]More light for you doesn’t make the world darker for me
[02:56.652]Nuh uh
[02:57.572]
[02:57.722]What if we went a little bit out of our way to stop the hatred
[03:03.130](Imagine that)
[03:04.071]Stop the hatred
[03:05.931]What if we took a little time out of our day to stop the hatred
[03:13.623](Could it be)
[03:14.775]Stop the hatred
[03:16.140]Rain love on me
[03:17.855]
[03:18.943]Rain love on me
[03:21.209]Rain love on me
[03:23.880]Open up your eyes and finally see
[03:29.284]Rain love on me
[03:32.109]Rain love on me
[03:34.333]Open up your eyes and finally see
