Mama took two jobs to keep the lights on, but the bills kept comin', and the hope was gone. I was sixteen when I learned to pray, not for blessings—just to get through the day. This is the South that nobody sings about, where the strong survive and the weak get out. Where the rain falls hard and the rust runs deep, and you cry yourself to sleep. We're rust and rain, holdin' on by a thread, livin' on dreams that our parents bled. Rust and rain, can't escape this pain, but we're still standin' in the rust and rain. Yeah, we're rust and rain. My brother got hooked on pills from a doctor's hand, said they'd help him cope with the factory's demand. Now he's gone—lost to the opioid wave, buried in a cemetery on a hillside grave. Mama never quite recovered from that loss, she just stares out the window, countin' the cost. And I'm here tryin' to be strong for us all, but some nights I feel like I'm gonna fall. This is the South that nobody sings about, where the strong survive and the weak get out. Where the rain falls hard and the rust runs deep, and you cry yourself to sleep. We're rust and rain, holdin' on by a thread, livin' on dreams that our parents bled. Rust and rain, can't escape this pain, but we're still standin' in the rust and rain. Yeah, we're rust and rain. I got no college degree, got no way out, got a minimum wage job and a heart full of doubt. Healthcare's a luxury I can't afford, and the system don't care—that's the truth, Lord. But I'm still here, still fightin', still strong, even when the world tells me I don't belong. 'Cause we're made of somethin' they can't break, even if it's all we got at stake. I see my daughter's eyes, and I see the fear, that she'll end up like me—trapped right here. So I'm workin' double shifts, savin' every dime, hopin' she gets out while there's still time. This ain't no pity song, ain't no cry for help, it's just the truth of what we live ourself. We're the backbone of this country, don't you forget, and we ain't done fightin' yet. We're rust and rain, holdin' on by a thread, livin' on dreams that our parents bled. Rust and rain, can't escape this pain, but we're still standin' in the rust and rain. We're rust and rain, and we're here to stay, we'll find the light through the darkest day. Rust and rain, yeah, rust and rain, we're still standin' in the rust and rain. Rust and rain… we're still here. Rust and rain… we're still standin'. Yeah… rust and rain. #RustAndRain #CountryBallad #SadCountrySongs #ModernCountry #FemaleCountrySinger #HonkyTonk #StorytellingSong #SouthernGothic #BlueCollarCountry #HeartbreakingSong #NewCountryMusic #CountryMusic #WeepingSteelGuitar
