Rain, such a simple thang   Every drop, a different stop   But they all come from the same   God is the cloud   And we are the rain   That's why I sometimes feel   That somehow we are the same      Whenever I lay my head to sleep   There's a strong thought that keeps haunting my mind   Careless whispers of a nation   That somehow was caught trapped in the dark   And nowhere to go   I know my thoughts are tellin' me      chorus   Gotta be a part of me   I can feel it   Gotta be a part of me   In my heart, in my soul   Gotta be a part of me   The world must be callin' me   And my world comes from within      Life has no guarantees   That you'll keep what you have   Even though you're blessed with then   That's why I'm feeling   Some fear for the world   With all the grief and misery   How much real time is there      The sooner I take more responsibilities   I can truly say   I am grateful for my world   The irony of tryin' to do the right thing   Is whatever you do, some will undo   And sometimes destroy   And there's someone still left in darkness   And you say      chorus      bridge (spoken)   The world is what we make it   What we see today   Are the results of the mistakes they made yesterday   And what we see tomorrow   Will be the results of what we do today   It's a shame that peace and respect   Has been replaced with money and power   The children, they are the futures   So teach them how to love themselves   And they will love others   Don't you see, love - that's the key      chorus
