Black Rain

You left them swimming for their lives down in New Orleans

Can't afford a gallon of gasoline

With your useless degrees and your contrary statistics

This government business is straight up sadistic



It's a black rain

Said a black rain is gonna fall



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



And it won't be long 'til the people flood the streets

And we come for you-one and all

That's a black rain

That's a black rain

It's gonna fall



Don't you dare 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



It won't be long 'til the people flood the streets

And take you down-one and all

It's a black rain



The black rain is gonna fall

Yeah it's gonna fall

Gonna fall

Gonna fall
