What up White Rain
How you feeling
Check
There's nothing like spreading
evil through your lungs
Then looking in the mirror
just to see what you've become
Now you meet with hood lums
from the streets and to the slums
Life's slipping through
your fingers and it's
leaking through ya thumbs
Quiet with lingo yes
quiet with the lingo
Because look if life's a
gamble he's gonna die
in this casino
But he hit rock bottom
girl left and GOD got him
Hospital brought him back
but after that the cops locked him
I told him
he's got to start another plan
Then He looked disgusted
told me it's too
hard to understand
You don't know
what's it's like to give it all
for another gram
Or even having pops leave and
fist fighting your mother's man
I couldn't speak
he said to listen
and just HOPE that's it's real
And if you've never felt regret
don't say you know how I feel
Another bottle made him hollow
now he's closing the deal
Drowning all his sorrow
getting close to them gills
And it hurts when they say
he ain't trying
nobody's listening
Babymom's fed up said he'd
never see his kids again
If you lived this life results
are probably the same
But who's to say
It's frustrating
when nobody's the blame huh
Back back forth forth
Trying to find a reason
Back back forth forth
Trying to find a reason
Because the only way to mellow
Is for you to learn to let go
Only way to mellow
Is for you to learn to let go
Back back forth forth
Trying to find a reason
Back back forth forth
Trying to find a reason
Because the only way to mellow
Is for you to learn to let go
Only way to mellow
Is for you to learn to let go
I knew this girl
Her name was Rhonda
We were cool
Well sorta kinda
Had a husband in the slammer
long sentence no comma
She came to my shows
said she loved my stage presence
Said she knew I toured a lot
but please just stay present
It took her a long time to open up
At first I thought it was because
she ain't wanna fall in love
I brought we to the crib
and almost took the exchange
But then I said I wanted more
then she looked at me strange
Our relationship was cool
matter of fact it was beautiful
Until One day we got way
drunker than we usually do
Talking we were laughing
we were drowning in compassion
Then she kissed me like
that was the last time
that it would happen
Til that point
I'd never felt a touch that right
So I was fully convinced
that I fell in love that night
She asked me for advice
then she asked me for it twice
Then her husband came back
and then he asked me for my life
Back back forth forth
Trying to find a reason
Back back forth forth
Trying to find a reason
Because the only way to mellow
Is for you to learn to let go
Only way to mellow
Is for you to learn to let go
Back back forth forth
Trying to find a reason
Back back forth forth
Trying to find a reason
Because the only way to mellow
Is for you to learn to let go
Only way to mellow
Is for you to learn to let go
Just let it play
Just let it work
Just let it breathe
Just let it hurt
Ok because the only way to mellow
Is for you to learn to let go
Only way to mellow
If for you to learn to let go
Just let it play
Just let it work
Just let it breathe
Just let it hurt
Ok because the only way to mellow
Is for you to learn to let go
Only way to mellow
Is for you to learn to let go
Not everybody's innocent
then again men have been afraid
A renegade
crying for help
begging for strength to pray
Everybody's got vices
for me it's the bottle
But who's the blame but myself
and them streets of Chicago
I thank my mom
Because she was the one
that put on the pressure
Told me to stay away
until my sickness got better
But I missed my little sister so
I got my shit together
She way my umbrella
when I was under the weather
Back back forth forth
Trying to find a reason
Back back forth forth
Trying to find a reason
hey ah hey ah hey ah dah
hey ah hey ah hey ah dah
Back back forth forth
Trying to find a reason
Back back forth forth
Trying to find a reason
hey ah hey ah hey ah dah
hey ah hey ah hey ah dah
