Isleton

Spring run calling, yeah the river know my name,

Moonlight shining on the water like a flame,

Some chase demons, yeah they numbin’ all the pain,

I just need that rod bend — feel it run through my veins,

Caffeine heart, yeah it beatin’ out my chest,

Delta nights where I feel it the best,

I ain’t from Isleton but I still claim the zone,

‘Cause that river right there… yeah it feel like home

🎣 VERSE 2 (16 bars):

Late night casts, hear the current whisper low,

Every ripple got a story only river rats know,

Cold steel in my grip, line cut through the flow,

If it’s dead out here tonight, I still ain’t ready to go,

Seen pain in that water, seen peace in it too,

Seen lost souls drift by tryna find somethin’ true,

I ain’t perfect, got weight that I carry like lead,

But that tug hit my line bring me back from the edge,

Boot prints in the mud like I’m marking my lane,

Every cast, every miss, yeah I’m learning the game,

Wind howlin’ through the Delta like it calling my sins,

But I drown it in the current let the healing begin,

From Stockton to Isleton, yeah I roam like a ghost,

Chasing stripes, chasing time, chasing moments I hold,

If I’m gone one day just let ‘em scatter my bones,

In that Delta water current… where I already belong
