Song written by Ken Veltz (2002)

Gentle rains,
Turn to hurricanes,
That blow oppressors down.

lyrics

Gentle Rain 
Music and lyrics by Ken Veltz 

Typical for the time, it’s a crime, that you should run the show 
You keep failing upward, everything suffers, and you’re the last to know  Greedy advisors, bend your ear 
Spoon feeding you the things they think you want to hear 

(chorus)
 It’s just a gentle rain at the door 
But there’s a hurricane in store  

Cyber space, human race get ready for nothing left to rule 
The great equalizer, the people are wiser than insulated fools
 Off with their heads, a king’s decree 
Until he’s walking to the guillotine

  (chorus)

  Down the hall, it’s a race for the place of top dog to the power
 A great white is feeding and your foot is bleeding about to be devoured  It’s time to destroy artistic minds
 For self-preservation and bottom lines 

(chorus)

  In the end it’s a fact that history weeds out needless names
 Enjoy the hour, enjoy the power but forget the halls of fame
  So many stories beneath your feet
 But the barometric pressure’s falling on the street  

(chorus) 

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

  (chorus)
