[(Verse 1)]
Twenty years since the waters rose high,
In New Orleans where the memories still lie.
Katrina came roaring like a ghost from the past,
A hurricane that left shadows long to last.

[(Pre-Chorus)]
Bourbon Street, oh how it tried to dance,
But beneath its feet, wasn't given a chance.
Echoes of a storm that shook the coast wide,
Its whispers still linger, where dreams often hide.

[(Chorus)]
Twenty years, and the wind still calls,
Through the heart of the Gulf, through rain that falls.
New Orleans, hear her old refrain,
In memories of Katrina's reign.

[(Verse 2)]
The Ninth Ward's tales, they ripple and sigh,
Homes swept away as rivers rolled by.
A city of spirit, of jazz and of heart,
Yet storms remind us, how fragile we start.

[(Pre-Chorus)]
In the land where the sun strokes the coast,
We raise our glasses, to remember and toast.
Though time has passed and walls are rebuilt,
The lessons linger, alongside the guilt.

[(Chorus)]
Twenty years, and the wind still calls,
Through the heart of the Gulf, through rain that falls.
New Orleans, hear her old refrain,
In memories of Katrina's reign.

[(Bridge)]
Whispers of change, in the levee's song,
Ask if we're ready, if we've grown strong.
Down by the bayou, the stories they tell,
Remind us of hardship, history's swell.

[(Outro)]
So let the brass play, let the rhythm ride,
In the soul of New Orleans, where spirits abide.
Twenty years gone, but never estranged,
Echoes of the Gulf, in hearts unchanged.
