Lyrics:

depression leads to real pain
man they tried to call me insane
chasing ‘love’ will have ya in ‘vain’
CHUUURCH
fake friends playing mind games
tryin tell you fame is your dream
faking they faith like they ordained
CHUUURCH
testify and you by yourself
tell the truth and they pray you fail
watch the ‘circle’ you know ‘so’ well
CHUUURCH
walk your stride with yo head high
follow YOUR dreams you got the green light
put that SAUCE on MAGNIFY
CHUUURCH
I know you feel the pain girl.
keep dancing through the rain GIRL
ooo
Keep Dancing though the rain girl

ooo
when it rains it pours down
had to lose it to know now.
won’t get caught in that self doubt
CHUUURCH
now im
making my new bands
b$7ch is picky with my new friends
if i do it I own it mannnn
CHUUURCH
my free looking like Gucci
they way i move is a movie
I’m like the water I’m Bruce Lee
Floating
I know you feel the pain girl
keep dancing through the rain girl.
ooo
keep dancing through the rain girl
through all the faults we rise
we going it up. LIVE
Dancing through the rain
Keep dancing through the rain girl
There is a place
where everybody grooves
and the ladies let their hair down to soothe their taste
Here in this place you will find it’s in your mind
there’s no time to waste
groove along.
