The rain could be the antagonist
To my tears
But it's most likely choice
Followed by fears
And in the quiet between lightning and thunder
I hear her voice and it makes me wonder
With each drop unique as it washes defeat
Cleansing the surface
And soaking in deep
Allowing the seed of potential
Some oxygen to breath
So bring on the rain
It's a pain I must know
In order for me to spread and bloom and grow
And I promise myself after it washes away
I'll be stronger then yesterday
Then yesterday
So now it's time to reach above the surface and down deep
So I can breathe in peace and let my roots seep and creep
To a depth beyond madness
And above this dark sadness
Stop the self defeat
You deserve the sows you reap
So bring on the rain
It's a pain I must know
In order for me to transcend dark and grow
And I promise myself after it washes away
I'll be stronger then yesterday
Then yesterday
Density provides resistance
Strength is only for those with persistence
A delicate state or a life left in wait
A storm ahead, don't bow your head
And I keep looking back
To check on my choice
Was it the right one
Will it strengthen my voice
So bring on the rain
It's a pain I must know
In order for me to transcend self and grow
And I promise you after it washes away
You'll be stronger then yesterday
Then yesterday
