[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain

Uh.. uh.. uh, uh, uh

[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain

It's not that we gotta do what we do

It's what we know, so to me it ain't nuttin but bein true but

[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain

It doesn't have to be the way it is, you say it is

Just because for the past 20 years, every day it is

[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain

I wanna be able to walk out my front door

Without worryin about comin in conflict with the law, cause

[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain

If I follow Him, they'll follow me

And I'll speak life into the word that you can see

[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain

We get away with everyday shit, but everyday shit

catches up to you and when it does you can't say shit!

[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain

If I don't, you will, when I won't, you steal

What makes it feel like we gots to kill?

[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain

How many more lives must we lose?

How many more times must we choose to trust these fools?

[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain

If it ain't broke, don't fix it

I gave it to you straight don't mix it twist it up on some slick shit

[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain

I don't have to talk to it any more

I don't have to walk to it any more, I'm out the door [SLAM]

[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain

I wanna find peace with the Lord

I don't wanna find a beast with the sword, I can't afford to

[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain

When every day of my life

Is a constant fight between wrong and right

[singing] Now I know, only I, can stop the rain

I thank yo
