U will be moved when the baby lets out his very first cry
U will be moved when U think of how hard he'll have 2 try


He'll grow up on an empty stomach, but he'll try his
best 2 listen
2 the teacher readin' from a schoolbook with half the pages

missin'
CHORUS:
Surely when the rain comes, U will be moved

La da da da da

U will be moved, and U will be when the baby makes all the
grades
U will be moved, and U will be when they still don't hire

him anyway
Moved by a system without one single guarantee
That an education is the answer and love will set us free


CHORUS


Oh, U will be moved when the rain comes, oh yes, U will be moved

When the streets overflow with angry souls, that's when U

see the truth
When the pain that U've inflicted comes back on your door 2
roost (Back on your door 2 roost)

That's when U'll see the future (future), but U
won't see U


CHORUS

U will be moved when the whip comes down on the back of one of

your own
U will be moved when U look 4 compassion but U find U're
all alone

Moved, and U will be when U are, that's when U'll know

That the bread U share is better than the blood that your deeds

have caused 2 flow
(That the bread is better than the blood)


CHORUS

Hey, U will be moved when the rain comes, oh yes, U will be

moved
When the streets all flow with angry souls, that's when
U'll see the truth

When the pain that U've inflicted comes back on your door 2
roost (Back on your door 2 roost)
That's when U'll see the future (future), but U

won't see U

I said surely when the rain comes, U will be moved

La da da da da (La da da da da)

Hey, surely, surely, surely (when the rain comes)
Surely y'all
Ow, la da da da da
