When I was on the rez I went on a vision quest - crying for a name, you know?

And Rain was the name I got.

I didn't realize it at first. When I went up the mountain it started raining and I stayed out in it praying and praying for a sign. Three days and all it did was pour - no sign, no animal, not anything. And when I finally went back my dad was there and he dragged me away in the car, still all soaking wet and crying because the ancestors hadn't heard me, all they sent was rain, rain, rain. And then I realized that was my sign.

And that was my name.
