Love Rain (Suite)
[Intro]
Love, rain, down
Love, rain, down
Love, rain, down
Love, rain, down

[Verse 1]
Met him on a Thursday, sunny afternoon
Cumulus clouds, 84 degrees
He was brown and deep
Said he wanted to talk about my mission
Listen to my past lives
Huh, huh, huh, word?
Took me on long walks to places where butterflies rest easy
Talked about Moses and Mumia
Reparations, blue colors, memories of shell-top Adidas
He was fresh...fresh...like summer peaches
Sweet on my mind like block parties and penny candy
Us was nice and warm
No jackets, no umbrellas, just warm
At night we would watch the stars
And he would...physically give me each and every one
I felt like cayenne pepper, red, and hot, spicy
I felt Dizzy and Sonya, heaven and Miles Davis between my thighs
Better than love, we made delicious
[Chorus]
Love, rain, down (On me)
Love, rain, down (On me, yeah)
Love, rain, down (Love rain down on me)
Love, rain, down

[Verse 2]
The rain was fallin'
Slowly and sweetly and stingin' my eyes
And I could not see that he became my voodoo priest
And I, his faithful concubine
Wide open, wide
Loose like bowels after collard greens
The mistake was made
Love slipped from my lips
Dripped down my chin and landed in his lap
And us became new
Now me, non-clarivoyant and in love
Made the coochie easy and the obvious invisible
The rain was falling
The rain was falling
The rain was falling
And I couldn't see that I was to be
That I was to be plowed and sown and fertilized
And left to drown in his sunny afternoon
Cumulus cloud, 84 degree melody
[Chorus]
Love, rain, down (Love rain down on me)
Love, rain, down (Love rain down on me)
Love, rain, down (Love rain down on me)
Love, rain, down (Yeah)
Love, rain, down (You broke me but I'm healing)
Love, rain, down (Mending myself, not concealing)
Love, rain, down (The pain, the rain)
Love, rain, down (Thee rain)
Love, rain, down (Yes, you broke me but I'm healing)
Love, rain, down (Mending myself, not concealing)
Love, rain, down (The pain, the rain)
Love, rain, down (The rain)
Love, rain, down (Yeah)
Love, rain, down (You broke me but I'm healing)
Love, rain, down (Love rain down on me)
Love, rain, down
Love, rain, down
Love, rain, down
Love, rain, down
Love, rain, down

[Outro]
Duh-duh-duh-duh-dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum
Duh-duh-duh-duh-dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum
Duh-duh-duh-duh-dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum
Duh-duh-duh-duh-dum, dum, dum
Love, love, love love love love
Love, love, love love love love
Love, love, love love love
Love, love, love love love love love love
Love, love, love rain down on me
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Love rain down on me
Oh, you broke me but I'm healing
Love, love, love, you broke me but I'm healing
You broke me but I'm healing
You broke me but I'm healing
You broke me but I'm healing, healing, healing
You broke me but I'm healing
You broke me but I'm healing
You broke me but I'm... healing, healing, healing
Healing, healing, healing
