lyrics

It's been such a long time
Since I tasted rain
It tastes so sweet today

Held my hands up high
I could feel the sky
Never wanna be dry

It didn't seem like much
As it fell so slowly
Just a fine mist

But mothers wept
And the kids all danced
We're gonna get through this

We've all been through hell
I've seen so many friends die
From thirst and bullets

I doubted myself
I doubted everyone else
Did we fail this test?

Nothing ever comes
The way you want it to
Gotta keep your head up

Gonna be a long time
Before everything's in line
We've got a fight ahead
