Black clouds are looking darker
We bring the night to life
I hope you got your lighter
Spark the match and light
Somehow we all survived
Although they dimmed the lights
They try to knock my future down
The trees they tried to hide

They say I'm an optimist
Now look I topped the list
Approve or not to this
From negative to positive
Yeah, jump out the plane
No parachutes, we let it rain
Flood the game, I brought my troops

Forecast to be gray again
Feels as if it never ends
Won't hide behind the door
Anymore
Let it rain
Let it rain
(You see the)
Drip drop coming
Everybody give way
Can't stop forming
May as well embrace
Let it rain
Let it rain
Let it rain
(You see the)
Drip drop coming
Everybody give way

Said I wouldn't last for long
Said I had one hit and wondered back my parted songs
Asking what's the label on
Had this came along
Why the hell, this sign of stress
Told my A&R he's okay but now the game is wrong

Now picture this
Now I've got hits they miss
I've planned it all
To rule the black the mist
And now it's ours
Let it play for hours
From of basement to the rooftop
We just played the powers

Forecast to be gray again
Feels as if it never ends
Won't hide behind the door
Anymore
Let it rain
Let it rain
(You see the)
Drip drop coming
Everybody give way
Can't stop forming
May as well embrace
Let it rain
Let it rain
Let it rain
(You see the)
Drip drop coming
Everybody give way

I'm stepping out tonight
There's a life worth more
(I hear it calling)
I'm afraid no more
(Can't stop me falling)
Behind the gray there's light
(Black clouds)
I will reach it by
(Standing across)
At the I know
I'm gonna to be alright

But they keep it moving on
No time for dwelling on
They hum we sing along
We're gonna be alright
I know you see
In fact they all believe
Them clouds above for me
I let it rain
Let it rain
You see the
Drip drop coming
Everybody give way
Can't stop forming
May as well embrace
Let it rain
You see the
Drip drop coming
Everybody give way
