///*****/// ///We Are the Flood ///Lyrics © 2026 Joshua Sloan ///Kindness Matters Music Productions ///*****/// [Intro | distant thunder | building fuzz guitar | spoken low] One drop. One drop. Now listen. [Verse 1 | driving fuzz | menacing] They told me I was nothing. One drop against the stone. They told me to stay quiet. They told me I'm alone. A single voice means nothing. It dries before it lands. They never watch the sky go black. They never feel it change. [Pre-Chorus | building | rising tension] But the clouds are getting heavy. And the low sky starts to turn. You can feel it in the pressure. You can smell it on the wind. [Chorus | huge fuzzed-out hook | gang vocals] You can't stop the rain. We fall on everything. One drop is nothing. But we are the flood. You built your walls too high. You never dug a drain. You can't stop the rain. [Verse 2 | heavier | the drops find each other] Now I found the others. A thousand on the roof. A million in the gutter. And the water's coming through. We were always falling. You just never looked up. Now the river's at your doorstep. And the river's had enough. [Pre-Chorus | building | rising tension] And the clouds are breaking open. And the street becomes a stream. You can hear it in the thunder. You can't hold back the sea. [Chorus | huge fuzzed-out hook | gang vocals] You can't stop the rain. We fall on everything. One drop is nothing. But we are the flood. You built your walls too high. You never dug a drain. You can't stop the rain. [Bridge | psychedelic breakdown building to explosion | aimed at the powerful] You sit up on the high ground. You think the storm won't climb. But the water finds the cracks. The water always finds. You can dam it. You can name it. You can preach it isn't real. But it's rising to the window now. And it rises how we feel. [Guitar Solo | wailing acid fuzz | wah and feedback | vast] [Final Chorus | biggest | full gang vocals | storm at peak] You can't stop the rain. We fall on everything. One drop is nothing. But we are the flood. You built your walls too high. You never dug a drain. You can't stop the rain. [Outro | thunder | fuzz ringing out | shouted then fading] Rise like water. Rise like water. You can't stop the rain. [End]
