Black Rain
This track of the "Both
Sides of the Gun" album, has been written and recorded in september
2005 after Katrina hurricane, in order to denounced the treatement
done by the federal governement to back populations of New Orleans.
Lyrics :
- yeah!
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
(And it's) a black
rain
(Oh it's) 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 (fill) the streets
We come for you
One and all
(That's) a black rain
(Yeah that's) a black rain is 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
And it won't be long 'til the people flood the streets
To take you down
One and all
(It's) a black rain
Talking 'bout a black rain is going fall
- is going fall
- is going fall
- one and all
