Let It Rain Songtext

von Mike Love

Please Jah, let it rain
Let it wash all this wickedness away
So much sorrow, so much pain
Let the sun come out to shine another day
Please Jah, let it rain
And if our roots are strong we will remain
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain, let it rain, let it rain
In the beginning there was only Love
All was connected to the Most High above
Every creature lived in harmony
There was no language for the word enemy
All animals were equal under Jah sun
There was just enough food for everyone
There were no squabbles and no ego trips
There was no language for the word ownership
Then along came mankind, eager to prove his worth and his might
To conquer the land, conquer the seas, conquer the skies
A god in his own eyes
But be careful you build your house too high
Standing on your tiptoes trying to touch the sky, you're gonna topple
Look how your foundation crumble
You had everything you could need, but you just couldn't keep it simple
How long will we wait for humanity to come around
Is the gap too great to cross this divide and be reunited
I should have known it, I should have seen it coming creeping like a shadow on my heart, hungry like a vampire
I should have felt it, historically the signs were there for all to see, esoterically hidden in plain sight
So gather your freedom and hold it tight, yeah we're gonna live it up tonight
Follow me brother cause babylon never discover the treasure that we hold, oh no
How long will we wait, open the doors of Zion gate
We will suffer no more
Can't you hear we knocking, knocking at your door
How long will we wait
Will we open the seventh and seal our fate
Is the gap too great, to cross this divide and be reunited
'Cause they will never give up, 'til they sucked every last drop of blood from out of our veins
So we got only one choice, listen closely to my voice, we got to take back our freedom
