Black Rain lyrics

You left them swimming for their lives
Down in new orleans
Can t afford a gallon of gasoline
With your useless degrees and contrary statistics
This government business is straight up sadistic

Now 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

Don t 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

And it won t be long
til the people flood the streets
To take you down
One and all
A black rain is gonna fall
