A black cloud′s hanging over the town tonight But I don′t mind I don′t mind There′s a cold breeze cutting through the summer air But I′m not scared I don′t care ′Cause we dance the night away Let′s dance the night away, yeah!
The black cloud′s whispering into my ear But I don′t hear I won′t hear ′Cause the arms that hold me want an eye to eye He′s touching me And I don′t mind As we dance the night away Let′s dance the night away
Oh yeah! The music wants me tonight What time will you let me down I look pretty good tonight Oh yeah! Little black cloud Little black cloud I don′t wanna go home
The black cloud′s circling over me tonight But I don′t mind And you don′t mind If you′re cold I′ll tell you it′s the summer breeze Just dance with me We′ll be alright
Oh yeah! Te music wants me tonight What time will you let me down I look pretty great tonight Oh yeah! Little black cloud Little black cloud I′m not done yet
Hey, look at me! The music wants me tonight What time will you let me down I look pretty great tonight Oh yeah! Little black cloud Little black cloud I don′t wanna go home I′m not done yet I′m not done yet

Now people say i′m jinxed i got some kind of voodoo hex Life is so complex there′s no telling what could happen next Life on the edge, fuels the sickness in my head it imbeds the type of thoughts that got a lot of brothers dead The smarter brother knows to keep his foes close and i′m the type of brothers that smarter than most A cold hearted overdose of lyrical antidotes The cure to make sure my karma can′t take me down Up to the same old tricks i wonder if i′ll stick around is a penny really lucky If you find it on the ground? What′s the problem with this town? I can′t figure it out my karma′s crashing down in the form of a black cloud.
Chorus: I′ve got a little black cloud, that follows me everywhere i go it takes over me (x2)
I′m sick I′ve got an ill disposition my intentions are pure but there′s a cure for my condition My decisions put me in the wrong positions Chasing pipe dreams of fame and recognition The epic Not only a name a definition My game remains no matter the pain I stay the charmer The don of karma I navigate like the dalai lama I ain′t a saint but i′ve got joi de vie and i′m the one to blame if the cloud rains on me I can′t complain about it or even let regret Provoke the energy it takes For me to get upset A bad boy since birth so i can′t forget what goes around comes around and it ain′t got me yet I′ve gotten wise in my age and tame the threat of my rage I′ve got allot to learn and i′ve got money to spend to pretend is reaping more than sewing ever could mend.
Chorus: Trade my torches for a dime. The pressure′s fading away now. Black cloud′s lifted for the light the pressure′s fading away now. A thousands cigarettes won′t change the way we feel The pressure′s fading now, can you bare the though of knowing truth? Knowing truth?
I was rapping in the rain hoping that my luck would change and if there′s any truth to all those all sayings Cuz if i kill a spider would my house catch on fire? If i walk under a ladder would it matter? I tend to laugh when black cats cross my path Break mirrors in half just to test the aftermath Now here comes the rain I protect my pain Trying to make sense of these crazy things I′m a diamond in the rough could i suffer enough? I′m getting high for a living not giving a fuck These hard times got me stuck, stuck in a jam I′m the monkey on your back and the crack in the dam Disastrous Took time to master this and the past is just a map to capture this In the darkness i′m force to adapt to this I would change the past if i could have one wish.
Chorus: Trade my torches for a dime. The pressure′s fading away now. Black cloud′s lifted for the light the pressure′s fading away now. A thousands cigarettes won′t change the way we feel The pressure′s fading now, can you bare the though of knowing truth? Knowing truth?
This is making me crazy These black clouds following me So I look for signs of light But rarely I see them
I return to my shelter And I crawl in a bottle I′m losing my will for this So over emotional
Black clouds They rain down but They can′t kill the sun
Confession of depression This life I′m second-guessing Like ashes to ashes I always seem to fall down I′m tired of running It′s time to face my demons Confession of depression This life I′m second-guessing
My emotions are storming And tears fall just like rain Pain strikes like lightning Despair is becoming my friend
I′m pushing myself to a point of self-destruction
Black clouds They rain down but They can′t kill the son inside
(No!) Here in the dark Escaping this withering soul My thoughts are growing cold Here by my side Is everything I′ve ever owned I′ve got to go alone And I don′t mind at all I′ve got to let you go
It′s the black clouds over your head It′s the monsters under your bed As tragic as this might seem We can′t escape the bad things You know what that means (No!)
Here in the light I′ll drown in what I′ll never be They love to watch them crawl But here I decide Swallow the worst part of me And then he breaks the fall And I don′t mind at all I′ve got to let you go
It′s the black clouds over your head It′s the monsters under your bed As tragic as this might seem We can′t escape the bad things You know what that means
Something better change real soon I don′t think I can wait for you Something that I have to do I swear that I will see this through Something better change real soon I swear that I will see this through
It′s the black clouds over your head It′s the monsters under your bed As tragic as this might seem We can′t escape the bad things You know what that means
It′s the black clouds over your head (oh the black clouds) It′s the monsters under your bed (no it′s the monsters) As tragic as this might seem (I have a bad dream) We can′t escape the bad things You know what that means
You know what that means You know what that means You can′t escape me You can′t escape me!
