Aye, aye, aye
Aye, aye, aye
Aye, aye, aye
Aye, aye, aye
Aye, aye, aye
Aye, aye, aye
Raindrops on the pillow of my bed
Still tryin' to keep my head up
Know you'd rather see me dead
And the raindrops keep on fallin'
Said they keep on fallin'
And they keep on fallin'
Said they keep on fallin'
Slaughterhouse, yo
I'm a product of when a nigga momma gives up
Cryin', layin' in the trash with the lid shut
Ain't got no family, my mind is tender
My daddy's invisible, my moms is Brenda, uhh
If I survive I'ma grow into what
Society considers trash, the rope is to us
That mean I'm hangin' myself by livin'
The noose is gettin' murdered, that or goin' to prison
My mind's controlled 'fore I learned mind control
What you call livin' life, I call dyin' slow
I'm genetically predisposed
The reaper the only thing that can ease my soul
Freezin' cold
Feelin' like I was given life, and if I take it at least I chose
I'll probably be in Heaven when the pain stops
'Til then all I'm hearin' is wind and raindrops
Raindrops on the pillow of my bed
Still tryin' to keep my head up
Know you'd rather see me dead
And the raindrops keep on fallin'
Said they keep on fallin'
And they keep on fallin'
Fallin', fallin'
Dear auntie, I still feel your timeless sorrow
Before you died, it's like your body was mine to borrow
Like I jumped in your physical shell
While you was goin' through miserable hell, sayin' goodbye to tomorrow
Every day it makes me sad, angry, mad
How you was sent to Heaven's sacred path
Duct-taped and gagged, plus raped and stabbed
Body draped in blood, what a fate to have
Such a pitiful end, I'm poppin' Ritalin like they Skittles
'Cause when I sleep, I can feel it again and again and again
And it's difficult, killin' is the wickedest biblical sin
I'm talkin' 'bout momma's identical twin
I see your face when I look at her
Her reminder of how I been in the cold since fourteen years old
I'll probably be in Heaven when the pain stops
'Til then all I'm hearin' is wind and raindrops
Rest in peace, Cha Cha
Raindrops on the pillow of my bed
Still tryin' to keep my head up
Know you'd rather see me dead
And the raindrops keep on fallin'
Said they keep on fallin'
And they keep on fallin'
Fallin', fallin'
Nah, I ain't move bricks on the Peter Pan
No father around to teach me how to be a man
We was too high, didn't know where we would land
Sprayin' coke on the weed so niggas didn't see a plant
Alcoholic child, raised off of sugar water
Hit it so you would just thought of how good he was for her
Coulda woulda oughta, one track mind
They say, "Man, how many cats buy the hooker for a quarter?"
And now I'm writin' a book and the hood's the author
Call the obvious poker face, look of torture
Teach you how to climb your way out that ditch then
Me, all I need is this pen and thick skin
Bein' so bright could mean you lip dim
'Cause you start tryin' to figure out a figment
I'll probably be in Heaven when the pain stops
'Til then all I hear is wind and raindrops
Raindrops on the pillow of my bed
Still tryin' to keep my head up
Know you'd rather see me dead
And the raindrops keep on fallin'
Fallin', fallin'
Fallin', fallin'
Check it out, I'm still waitin' on my dad to get back
He went to the store in '84 and I ain't seen him after that
Never single moms, public assisted, the rent wasn't consistent
So they had us back and forth to court in the months of the blizzard
My sneakers leaned, the rubber was missin'
No one-on-ones, they always jumped me
No brothers or sisters to hold me down
Alone with headphones plugged into a cheap Walkman that ate tapes
Gunshots had me sleepwalkin', I hate wakes
A whole lot of cryin', police chokin' that fake gape
Ambulance never on time, they like a day late
My cousin have to vacate my best friend since age eight
Sometimes I can't hold 'em, I kid you not
I get swollen, holdin' on a tissue box, somebody get a mop
I'll probably be in Heaven when the pain stops
'Til then all I'm hearin' is wind and raindrops
Raindrops on the pillow of my bed
Still tryin' to keep my head up
Know you'd rather see me dead
And the raindrops keep on fallin'
Said they keep on fallin'
And they keep on fallin'
Fallin', yeah
Said they keep on fallin'
And they keep on
And the raindrops keep on fallin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
