You cannot get any tweet for the last 3 months apart if you store them in your own database.
The only solution for you would be to pay Twitter GNIP to access historical data.
The Twitter API only provides the most recent tweets for a given search, up to ~3200.
The so-called “firehose” and some datasets are available mostly for research or developer purposes.
There are some services which sell custom datasets, including Twitter itself (which purchased Gnip). The overview by Justin Littman at GWU is rather comprehensive.
