"When It Rains It Pours" lyrics
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours, sometimes
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours
So here I am
It didn't happen overnight I had to pay my dues like everybody else in this life
So get a life
That's what they tell you at first
You gotta make your own decisions with the music too dispersed
Hip hop became a part of my life
It was a break in a storm of me off doing things right
And every day I practice so damn hard
I pull the moves, my position on point just like a guard
I pick up the mic
It seems I got another talent I was soon to be expressing myself with every ballad
And all kinds of people told me to stop but in the end
People stabbed me in the back, even those who were friends
And even at the studios producers started tripping
Try to make a dollar with gimmicks, they try to change my image
How's that?
They picked the wrong MC
That's how I made it on my own, that's how I made it on my own
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours, sometimes
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours, sometimes
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours, sometimes
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours
Knocking about with the in and out because I've been there before
Chop them up and down these roads I know when it rains it pours
Knocking about with the in and out because I've been there before
Chop them up and down these roads I know when it rains it pours
So here it is
It seems like I got nothing to lose
Should I lay down and die or should I stand up and fight?
Should I say what I believe, should I say it and leave?
Or should I go and pretend and blend in with all the things now?
Everybody knows that money rules the world
Without money to me, money gotta rely on the skills
Got to focus when it's hopeless and block out all the critics
And block out all the critics, and block out all the critics
When you're down, you're down
Or when you're out, you're out
Sick and tired of all those people that keep running off the mouth
With the hypocritical mind, so quick to point the finger
What goes in one ear up it goes out the other
And it's rough when no one's watching your back
When no one cares where you're at, when no one's cutting you slack
When no one's feeling my pain and my pain exceeds limits
And my light has diminished and I can't get nothing finished
In the end, you still don't know what to do
Haters with the attitude, say a big fuck you!
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours, sometimes
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours, sometimes
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours, sometimes
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours
Knocking about with the in and out because I've been there before
Chop them up and down these roads I know when it rains it pours
Knocking about with the in and out because I've been there before
Chop them up and down these roads I know when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours
When it rains it pours, sometimes
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours
So here I am
It didn't happen overnight I had to pay my dues like everybody else in this life
So get a life
That's what they tell you at first
You gotta make your own decisions with the music too dispersed
Hip hop became a part of my life
It was a break in a storm of me off doing things right
And every day I practice so damn hard

And all kinds of people told me to stop but in the end

That's how I made it on my own, that's how I made it on my own
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours, sometimes
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours, sometimes
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours, sometimes
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours
Knocking about with the in and out because I've been there before
Chop them up and down these roads I know when it rains it pours
Knocking about with the in and out because I've been there before
Chop them up and down these roads I know when it rains it pours

Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours, sometimes
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours, sometimes
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours, sometimes
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours
Knocking about with the in and out because I've been there before
Chop them up and down these roads I know when it rains it pours
Knocking about with the in and out because I've been there before
Chop them up and down these roads I know when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours
