[Intro] [whispered vocals] Three years Still smell that water in the drywall Still hear that wind in my sleep Lee County, huh [Verse 1] Oak trees bent like paper clips Roof peeled back, whole block went split Street signs surfed down the boulevard Boats in the road like they parked in yards Florida cracker, but I ain’t smile then When the tide took trucks, pulled the tires in Grandma’s Bible floatin’ by the busted screen Mud line marked where we used to dream [Chorus] Three years after Ian Still got ghosts in the ceiling Florida crackers even worried We remember what we’re feeling Straight chaos in the county Yeah, it’s burned in our breathing Three years after Ian But the wound still leaking [Verse 2] Smell of gas, sky lookin’ bruise-black Helicopters drawin’ circles where the roof’s at Neighbors on the porch with they whole life stacked In a milk crate, wet pics, one backpack Generators hum like a funeral song Lines at the store wrapped three streets long Mama say “we strong,” but her hands still shake Every time that forecast say the word “cate” [Chorus] [Bridge] We ain’t run, we rebuilt on sand Hammer in hand, still cussin’ at the land Trailers in the church lot, cookin’ on a grill Stories in the dark, talkin’ ‘bout the chill When the surge hit high as the stop sign When the night turned deep like a coal mine Still flinch when the thunder start speakin’ Three years later, but the past still creepin’ [Chorus]
