Ja Rule wrote " Rainy Dayz " in response to the September 11 attacks in his home city of New York . He told '' Complex '' , " I went in my basement in my studio and put that record together because that ’s how I was feeling about the situation . I felt like the nation — us as a country , us as people — we were going through a rainy day . It will pass but today this is what it is . Speaking to '' TRL '' , he said , " It ’s basically about how we feel going through life . But in these times , especially right now with what ’s going on , it kind of fits . On the record , I ’m basically saying that it ’s these rainy days that we spend a lifetime trying to wash away . Just waiting for the sun to come and shine again . But until then , come smile for me . So that ’s the kind of vibe that the song is on
