Analysis of The Rain
Yes! It's here again
When it comes, it spears none
Even the poor or rich
We don't sleep when it comes
'Cause we stay awake to hold the water as it leaks Through our tached roof it drops where we lay
The nights seem longer for the poor
Yet the rich enjoys the rain drop on the zinc roofs
The rain, yes the rain
