Rain
Azizi Gibson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But you can't catch a break (ooh ah, ooh ah)
I know it hurts you (it hurts you)
You feel so out of place (ooh ah, ooh ah)
Sometimes I feel like I'm standing in rain (like I'm standing in rain)
And sometimes I can't even feel the pain
I dare you to say again I'm something I'm not,
Before your ass gets popped (before you're shootin' up)
This side of me is preHISTORIC (get off of my dick)
The gap between us is enormous (you really ain't shit)
Got a problem with the law, we floor it (the OG bitch)
It's preHISTORIC, metaphoric (suck my dick)
Sometimes I feel like I'm standing in rain (like I'm standing in rain)
And sometimes I can't even feel the pain
I dare you to say again that I need'a stop, you sound like the cops
I dare you to say again I'm something I'm not,
Before your ass gets popped (before you're shootin' up)
Ah-ay, if you do, you're shootin' up
Ah-ay, if you do, you're shootin' up
Ah-ay, if you do, you're shootin' up
Ah-ay
Sometimes I feel like I'm standing in rain (like I'm standing in rain)
And sometimes I can't even feel the pain (even feel the pain)
I dare you to say again that I need'a stop, you sound like the cops
I dare you to say again I'm
Something I'm not, before your ass gets popped
I dare you to say again that I need'a stop, you sound like the cops
I dare you to say again I'm something I'm not,
Before your ass gets popped (before you're shootin' up)

And I couldn't even listen to it
No matter what I do Spotify shuffles it with garbage songs that I don't like
So I came here
@denisenicole8271
@@poyo5512 had a similar problem too. I found out that you can play any song you want on apple devices, but with Android you have to get premium or else it'll only play shuffled songs.
