Lyrics
Listen as the rain comes falling down,
Reflecting on the sound of rain falling.
Listen as it falls in the morning grace,
Observing the rain's beauty in the morning.
Wishes of the sun lay of the clouds,
Describing clouds as the sun's wishes.
You know she’s there but you don’t see the face,
A presence felt but not seen, possibly a metaphor.
Dreams in the moonlight makes them howl,
Noticing dreams that evoke emotional responses.
They told me when I wake it would be alright,
Expecting improvement upon waking up.
Something had to change in the daylight
A realization that change is needed in daylight.
I saw the sun light up into moonlight,
Transition from sunlight to moonlight.
I knew one day just like the stars we could shine bright,
Hopeful for a future where one shines like stars.
So tell your people stand up
Encouraging a collective stand for their lives.
Because this is our life,
A declaration that their life is unique.
And they can never rearrange what you done right,
Their achievements cannot be undone.
But what you done right
Emphasizing positive accomplishments.
What you done right
-Yo, fuck the fortune and fame
Rejecting the pursuit of fortune and fame.
Here's the raw shit that came
Connecting raw experiences to strength.
with magnanimity
-And the strength shall remain
-But you know were all insane
Acknowledging collective pain within.
From the pain as it swells and it dwells
-Deep inside one soul
-Some wake up to hell bombs dropping
Referencing historical struggles and consequences.
now face what your copping
-It's a coming from the slaves
Connecting pain and sound to societal issues.
And the base that your humming
-It’s coming from my heart
Expressing emotions from the heart.
Can you feel it?
Inviting others to feel the emotion.
Come feel a little heart,
Encouraging emotional connection and love.
Come feel a little heart
-Love delivering
Highlighting the impact of a genuine smile.
You’ve got spines shivering
-When you smile oh child
-When you smile oh child
-When you smile child
Reiterating the power of a child's smile.
So when i awoke I was alright
Acknowledging well-being upon awakening.
In my resilience I felt of the time fly
Reflecting on resilience and the passage of time.
I knew one day just like the stars we could shine bright,
Reiterating the hope for a bright future.
It's time for me to stand up because this is my life
Asserting personal responsibility for life.
They can never rearrange what you done right,
Stressing the irreversible nature of positive actions.
They can never rearrange what you done right,
-But what you done right,
Repeating the emphasis on doing things right.
What you done right
-Well I remember that day
Recalling a day filled with urgency and tension.
I was running like a train
-From the look in your face
-Like your running away
-You want to be a big instigator
Criticizing those who provoke without reason.
You in the wrong play
-Because we never forget
Remembering the impact of hurting others.
Of all the hearts you break
-And under pressure I’m gonna find the treasure
Expressing determination to find love and grace.
Of love and grace
-Live for today, don’t hear no words that they say
Encouraging a focus on today and resilience.
And when it pours down let the rain wash it away
-Let it rain
Welcoming the cleansing power of rain.
Let it rain
-Let it rain
-They told me when I wake it would be alright,
Reiterating the hope for a bright future.
Something had to change in the daylight
-I saw the sun light up into moonlight,
-I knew one day just like the stars we could shine bright,
-So tell your people stand up
Encouraging collective empowerment.
Because this is our life,
Asserting ownership of individual lives.
And they can never rearrange what you done right,
Emphasizing the lasting impact of positive actions.
But what you done right
-What you done right
