Some folks got a lot around them, that shine for other people's
I think maybe some of them, was in a tunnel
And in that tunnel, maybe the only light they had was inside of them (I've thought about how strong you've had to be)
And then, even long after they escape that tunnel, (I'll be cleaning up, okay ?)
They still shining for everybody else
(Surpass on the beat, ask about me)
That's Miss Rain to me
In a book I read, this lady escaped to a Halfway House
And when she was there, she asked the people there what a Halfway House was
And they told her, it was halfway between her old life, and where she want to be
Daddy was a beast, growing up
He was abusive
Overprotective, so if he say it you better do it
Drugs didn't catch her eye, but she low so she going to use it
She just want to forget, she ain't thinking of sticking to it
It started off small, just a random pill here and there
But times was getting harder, for her to even repair
The struggles getting worser, and life was being unfair
Got pregnant as a minor, she ready to have a heir
But daddy told her "No, you to young you'll look like a ho"
"Go terminate the baby", she found it at week 4
"A baby having babies, you 'posed to have it when old"
She shiver feeling cold, while looking out at the snow
At 30 in the USA, she living in New York
She married into wealth, because her husband played a sport
He playing College Ball, no he ain't playing ball court
He smile for the cameras, but at home his temper short
Carroll always cooked, but he beat her if she ain't clean
Pussy ass nigga on steroids, turned a fiend
He beat her till she blue, and then went and gave her some green
She just wanted to work, be a nurse, and pursue her dream
She pregnant once again, now what will she go tell her man ?
She guess that she'll be honest, and try to figure a plan
He ain't wan' have a kid, be a father ? rather be dammed
He pushed her down the stairs, and then watched her from where he stand
Pussy nigga, he left his wife and kid out for dead
Ain't no one called the police, 'cause her brothers want his head
They either going to poke him, or fill the boy up with lead
Don't care about his status, don't give a f*ck 'bout his bread
She fled back home, a broken woman devastated
She tried to kill her self, dealing with life and couldn't take it
She had started the deed, but at the time she couldn't stake it
And now here's newer news, are you ready to hear what's waiting ?
Her baby sister pregnant, ecstatic to be a Mom
She happy for her sister, but wish that she had her own
9 months go by she see him, her nephew was in her arm
She fell in love on sight, since the day that he had been born
That was me, and then 6 years went by and that was E
She showed us love through whatever, ain't matter who we'll be
Ain't matter if we choose to go to school, or in the street
Ain't matter if we wanted to direct, or ride a beat
In 2014, all her secrets came to light
She never stopped using, been abusing all her life
Compulsive and secretive, see drugs had made her that type
And through all of the flaws, I still see her like she is ripe
And now the newer news, is that now she a alcoholic
I like to tell myself, I could change her and make her stop it
But I know the truth, all I could do is hope that she cautions
'Cause Lord Knows, I don't need to see no one else in a coffin
