Black Rain

Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
You left them swimming for their lives Down in New Orleans Can't afford a gallon of gasoline With your useless degrees and contrary statistics This government business is straight up sadistic Now you don't fight for us But expect us to die for you You have no sympathy for us But still I cry for you Now you may kill the revolutionary But the revolution you can never bury Don't speak to us like we work for you Selling false hope like some new dope we're addicted to I'm not a desperate man but these are desperate times at hand This generation is beyond your command And it won't be long 'til the people flood the streets To take you down One and all A black rain is gonna fall
