[Verse 1] Grew up with gravel talking under our shoes Cicadas screaming, heat still sitting past dark Mom worked her hands raw keeping the lights on Dad was just a name we stopped saying out loud Found my own with them boys back by the feed store Cheap smokes, long silences, nobody left alone [Pre-Chorus] We stood shoulder to shoulder when the world pushed back Felt real quick them town eyes cutting right through us [Chorus] This my hood where them boys turned into brothers Stood right with me when the sheriff lights found us Raised me hard then it wore me down slow Still got that town sitting deep in me My hood, my scars, still stuck in me Them boys the only sure thing I ever knew [Verse 2] County fair, one hard look turned the night bad Blood on the gravel, sheriff lights on our faces One brother caught a charge, town made sure it stuck Stayed by his side, still couldn't pull him free Lost that old river garage, the one spot that was ours Watched them board it up, felt something shut in me [Chorus] This my hood where them boys turned into brothers Stood right with me when the sheriff lights found us Raised me hard then it wore me down slow Still got that town sitting deep in me My hood, my scars, still stuck in me Them boys the only sure thing I ever knew [Bridge] Look back now and that heavy air still sits in my chest Took the soft out of me, left me harder instead All them nights we held it down by the feed store... That small town broke me down... but it never broke us [Outro] Engines still coughing in the dark... Behind the feed store... That old river garage... Porch lights still burning...
