Let it Rain!

I've heard this song so many times, but recently it has come to mean so much more to me. The lyrics are what truly set this song apart, and you can never go wrong when the Zac Brown Band teams up with the great David Grohl to produce something. The whole album is spectacular, but this particular song is just incredibly liberating! Here's to every mistake ever made, to every apology ever owed, to any hurt I may ever have caused, to every skeleton in my closet, and to everything I used to be. Lay the past in the graveyard with things that can't hold me no more!

This isn't the entire song, it's a video explaining what inspired the lyrics to the song. If I could make every apology that was ever due, these were the words I'd use. Please check out the complete song on Youtube.

Let it Rain

Maybe I’m wounded, The pain it is passing.
Can you hold back the show for a while?
Beneath the hat that I’m wearing,
The storms are all brewing,
And maybe its time to go on.
Structure is quoting, And the wood it is cracking,
And the thoughts are all starting to fall.
And it’s more to say than what’s been said,
And people are climbing the wall!

Let it Rain,
Let it Pour.
Let these skeletons darken my door!
Lay the past in the graveyard,
With things that can't hold me no more.
Breathe in deep,
Let it out.
Wash the bitterness out of your mouth!
There's no room left for darkness,
When you’re filled with the light, it comes out.
