Can You Stay Through The Storm?

[Verse 1]
Life been heavy
like a coat soaked through
Keys on the table
bills on the fridge
Phone full of prayers
that I never hit send
I’m a cracked front screen
you still trying to pinch-zoom my truth
You see the dents in my armor
coffee rings on my dreams
I’m a car on E at midnight
still chasing green street signs
You say, "Baby, I’m here"
but I’m scared of that line
‘cause promises rust
when they park too long in my mind
[Chorus]
When the roof starts leaking
can you stay through the storm?
When the fire turns to ashes
will you still keep me warm?
If my sky goes dark
and the sun runs away
Are you a summer tattoo
or a coat for the rain? (yeah)
Can you stay through the storm?
Can you stay, can you stay?
[Verse 2]
I’m the house my past built
crooked doors, loud floors
Voices in the drywall
arguing behind closed thoughts
I hand you my fears
like a box of old cords
All tangled up wires
you still ask what they’re for
You say love is a lighthouse
but I feel like a shipwreck
Salt on my tongue
sleeping next to regret
If I lose my shine
chip my crown, miss my step
Are you flowers for the ‘Gram
or roots in the dirt where I’m kept? (uh)
[Chorus]
When the roof starts leaking
can you stay through the storm?
When the fire turns to ashes
will you still keep me warm?
If my sky goes dark
and the sun runs away
Are you a summer tattoo
or a coat for the rain?
Can you stay through the storm?
Can you stay, can you stay?
[Bridge]
If my name’s in the whisper
not the bright marquee
If my pockets feel lighter
than my memories
Will you still wrap me up
like a book you believe
Dog-ear the pages
‘cause you’re sure you won’t leave? (won’t leave)
[Chorus]
When the roof starts leaking
can you stay through the storm?
When the fire turns to ashes
will you still keep me warm?
If my sky goes dark
and the sun runs away
Are you a summer tattoo
or a coat for the rain?
Can you stay through the storm?
Can you stay, can you stay? (yeah)
Can you stay through the storm?

rap, Moody trap-soul beat at midtempo, deep sub bass and crisp hats, melancholy piano loop under layered male vocals. Verses start intimate and conversational, almost whispered, then build intensity with subtle synth pads. Hook blooms with stacked harmonies and a soaring top line, ad-libs tucked behind the main vocal. Final chorus adds extra backing layers and drops some drums for emotional lift before a soft fade.
