Umbrella (No More Kings)

I don't need your umbrella That's okay, I like the rain Let the sky fall on me While everyone else complains I learned a lot from Gene Kelly When it pours, it makes me sing With the clouds above me Covering everything Not long ago I misjudged it I thought only smiles would do Now I see I need The tears and frowns too Slowly drenched in drizzle No rubber boots, no parasol It's not a rollercoaster Without the rise and fall I'm riding it out Riding it out Riding it out I'll hold my ground I'm riding it out Staring it down Holding my ground I'll ride it out I feel my roots digging in to the soil Yeah it's feeding me I feel the truth is a friend of the toil Now it's leading me I'll dance around the lamppost With my ghosts, I'll take them on The streets return an echo The crowds have all gone Snuggled deep in their snail shells Just as well, it's alright to hide As for me, I need to Breathe the air outside I'm riding it out Riding it out Riding it out I'll hold my ground I'm riding it out Staring it down Holding my ground I'll ride it out I feel my roots digging in to the soil Yeah it's feeding me I feel the truth is a friend of the toil Now it's leading me Thunder's only a whisper Sometimes grief can look like fear No storm can last forever The sky was born clear I don't need your umbrella That's okay, I like the rain Let the sky fall on me
