Track Insight / Lyrics
Yeahhh
Lights out, stars out
We roll.
AC died in a heatwave fight
Fridge went quiet in the middle of night
Neighbor grillin’ on the driveway line
Said “we cookin’ through the hard times, fine”
Fan don’t spin but the jokes still do
Extension cords runnin’ point A to B through
One more blink and the block goes dark
Two more laughs and we light a spark
[Pre-
Ain’t no switch fixin’ this tonight
Just porch talk in a lantern light
My plans can’t beat this weather swing
So we turn it up and let folks sing
Grid down, boots up
Clap clap, fill the cup
I’m two-steppin’ through the heat
Findin’ rhythm in the street
Yeah we glow by a porch flame
Turn a setback into a game
If you ask why we’re wild—
Grid down, boots up
[Drop /
HEY!
Kick goes THUMP like—FIRE FIRE FIRE
Banjo snap and the bass climbs higher
Hands up high, we don’t cool down
We just dance in a blackout town
Water line actin’ like it’s shy
Pressure low but the spirits high
Buddy rigged up a backyard shade
With duct tape and a lemonade
Fiddle cuts through a dusty breeze
Kids run wild like they own these streets
Girl said “you call this a plan?”
I said “yeah, it’s the best we can”
Harmonica rides the night air slow
Drum build creepin’, feel it grow
Claps and stomps keep time out back
Whole block movin’ on one track
We don’t pick every card we’re dealt
But we play it loud, that’s how it’s felt
If the lines go dead, we light the sky
Turn a hard night into a rally cry
[Final Chorus /
Grid down, boots up
Sing sing, raise it up
Whole damn town in a chorus now
We don’t break, we bend somehow
Yeah we ride through midnight
Turn the dark into a spotlight
If you ask why we’re wild—
Grid down, boots up
boots up boots up
