Rain on Me Lyrics
Mmm...mmm...mmm...mmm...
Mmm...mmm...mmm...mmm...
Mmm...mmm...mmm...mmm...mmm...
[VERSE 1:]
I'm lookin' in the mirror
At this woman down and out
She's internally dyin'
I know this was not what love's about
I don't wanna be this woman
The second time around
'Cause I'm wakin' up screamin', no longer believin'
That I'm gonna be around
[PRE-HOOK:]
And over and over I tried
Yet over and over you lied
over and over I cried, yeah
I don't know why
And over and over I tried
Yet over and over you lied
over and over I cried, yeah
I don't know why
[CHORUS:]
Rain on me
Lord, won't you take this pain from me
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe
Baby, just rain on me
Lord, won't you take this pain from me
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe, tell ya just
[VERSE 2:]
See, I don't want to hug my pillow late at night no more
I'm tossin' and turnin' and thinkin' 'bout burnin' down these walls
I-I don't wanna fuel this fire no more, no more, no more
See, I made up my mind 'cause I've wasted my time
Ain't nothin' here to keep me warm
[PRE-HOOK X2]
[CHORUS]
[BRIDGE:]
I'm so tired of the rain
In my life
And I'm so tired of the strain
And now you're gonna lie
'Cause sometimes I can't sleep at night and
This here it just don't seem right and
Sometimes I just wonder why I
Almost let my life go by
'Cause sometimes I can't sleep at night and
This here it just don't seem right and
Sometimes I just wonder why I
Almost let my life go by
[CHORUS]
Meaning of Rain on Me
Mmm...mmm...mmm...mmm... Mmm...mmm...mmm...mmm... This raw ballad, “Rain on Me,” captures a profound sense of despair and the desperate yearning for release from overwhelming pain. Ashanti embodies the vulnerability of someone utterly broken by a destructive relationship, repeatedly trying to find solace but consistently met with lies and heartache. The lyrics depict a woman consumed by internal suffering, wrestling with suicidal thoughts and a feeling of being trapped in an endless cycle of tears and disappointment. She pleads for “rain on me,” symbolizing a cleansing force – a release from the emotional torment that’s suffocating her. The repeated cries of “I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe” underscore the intensity of her anguish, while the imagery of burning down walls reflects a desire to obliterate the remnants of a failed love and reclaim control over her life before it’s lost entirely.
