Stand The Rain

[INTRO – Smooth talking player] In New York City stands one of the most notable and iconic standup women of all times, The Statue of Liberty. People come from all over the world just to get a glimpse of her beauty. I need you to stand up right now baby. You look absolutely amazing. But, I got one question, baby… can you stand the rain? [VERSE 1] Lowrider slide through the Crenshaw night, paint wet like her thighs, She step to the curb in them red-bottom highs. Face card lethal, body scream felony, Said she done with them lames, wanna run this empire with me. I peep game quick—curves dangerous, talk even more, But the streets don’t care how pretty you walk through the door. “You want the crown, lil’ mama? That come with the flood, When the task force kick doors and the homies show blood.” Can you zip them lips when twelve press for a name? Or you gon’ sing like a canary caught in the flame? I move weight coastal, keep the pack on rotate, Need a queen who hold water, never let it evaporate. [CHORUS] Sunny days, everybody loves them Tell me, baby, can you stand the rain? Storms will come This we know for sure (This we know for sure) Can you stand the rain? When the plug dip and the money get strange Can you stand the rain? When the feds tap phones and the snitches change Can you stand the rain? [VERSE 2] She whisper, “Papi, I was raised where the sirens don’t sleep, Watched mama sell dreams just to make rent cheap.” Got that look in her eye like she ready to eat, Thick in the hips, thicker in loyalty—complete. I told her, “Game cold, baby, it’ll freeze your soul, One weak link and the whole chain lose control.” She grabbed my piece, kissed the chrome, said “I’m built for the war, Rather die on my feet than live on my knees on the floor.” If you don’t stand for somethin’ you fall for the first trick, First pressure, first offer, first time they flip quick. She countin’ blue faces while I’m dodgin’ blue lights, Provin’ every night she was born for these heights. [CHORUS] Sunny days, everybody loves them Tell me, baby, can you stand the rain? Storms will come This we know for sure (This we know for sure) Can you stand the rain? When the spot get hot and the workers get ghost Can you stand the rain? When the paper get low and the love turn to smoke Can you stand the rain? [VERSE 3 / OUTRO] Year later, raid hit the crib at 4:58, She swallowed the key, stared them pigs in the face. No tears, no shake, just that Liberty pose, Took thirty-six months standing on ten toes. Came home to a Maybach, keys in her palm, Crown permanent now—she my ride through the storm. If you don’t stand for somethin’ you fall for anything, She stood in the rain… now we run everything. Yeah… that’s that real. Exclusive Music. Can you stand the rain?
