Intro
Gray sky over the trailer, engine won't turn
Sixteen years old countin' pesos I earn
Rain on the tin roof, that's the only beat I know
Verse
Wake up at five, the puddles look like mirrors
Walking to work past the church and the dealers
Momma said prayers won't pay what the light bill say
So I flip what I got till the block start to sway
Torn up notebook full of bars and addition
Half of it rhymes, half of it's superstition
Corner store owner know me by my order
Two-dollar coffee, keep the change like a quarter
Wet shoes, cold hands, but my mind stay on fire
Every trap I climb out feel like barbed wire
Uncle said "slow down" but the season don't wait
Rain keep falling like it's writing my fate
I count clouds like they countin' my blessings
Every drop on the glass feel like a lesson
No umbrella but I walk with my chin high
Building something they can't wash out the sky
Hook
Lost in the rainy season, chasing what's mine
Puddles turn to mirrors, watch my future shine
Thunder keep on rolling but I don't mind the noise
Lost in the rainy season, turning static into voice
Verse
Six months later, got a mic and a mission
Same block, different sound, call it intuition
Momma's roof still leak but the check finally clearing
Neighbors used to whisper, now they finally hearing
Studio's a closet with a blanket on the wall
Vocal booth made of pillows, still I gave it all
Every verse I write is a receipt for the pain
Every hook I land wash away like the rain
Cousin pulled up crying, said "you made it out"
I said "not yet, but I can feel it, no doubt"
Sneakers wearing thin but my hunger stay sharp
Turned my block's silence into a symphony, art
Bought my momma boots so her feet don't get wet
Told her one day soon we ain't worried 'bout rent
Storm clouds still following wherever I go
But I learned how to dance in the undertow
Hook
Lost in the rainy season, chasing what's mine
Puddles turn to mirrors, watch my future shine
Thunder keep on rolling but I don't mind the noise
Lost in the rainy season, turning static into voice
Bridge
They said the sun don't shine where I'm from
Said the flood took the dreams, said the well run dry
But I built a boat out of broken drums
And I'm sailing past the reasons why
Every scar's a story, every drop's a debt paid
Every night I survived is a bet that I made
Outro
Rain still falling but I found my ground
Turned the storm into the sweetest sound
Lost in the rainy season, found my name
Same sky different me, ain't nothing stayed the same
