Soul Song — “Priceless Morning”
Verse 1
I wake before the light can rise,
heavy head, fire in my eyes,
Boots on the floor, heart on my sleeve,
trying to be the man I believe.
I’ve walked through pain, steel and knife,
cut from my chest down into life,
That hurt was sharp, but it had an end…
this quiet storm don’t ever bend.
Pre-Chorus
They don’t see the weight I hold,
smiles outside, inside I fold,
Energy gone before noon comes,
from all the noise, from all the ones…
Chorus
Pain is hard… but this right here,
lives in the mind, lives in the fear.
If you wake up whole, in body and soul,
that’s a treasure no money can hold.
Be grateful for a priceless morning,
peace of mind without a warning,
‘Cause mental pain don’t leave a scar,
but it can break you from where you are.
Verse 2
I’m a giver, that’s how I’m made,
carry the load, don’t get afraid,
But careless hearts and reckless minds,
leave silent damage you can’t define.
They take, they drain, they never see,
what their chaos is doing to me,
I try to love, I try to stay strong,
but some days feel like I don’t belong.
Pre-Chorus
Lord, help them see the light they got,
the blessings here they forgot,
Turn their hate into some grace,
bring a little peace to this place.
Chorus
Pain is hard… but this right here,
lives in the mind, lives in the fear.
If you wake up whole, in body and soul,
that’s a treasure no money can hold.
Be grateful for a priceless morning,
peace of mind without a warning,
‘Cause mental pain don’t leave a scar,
but it can break you from where you are.
Bridge (Soul breakdown)
I don’t want anger… I just want rest,
quiet in my mind, ease in my chest,
Let me breathe without this weight,
let me love without the hate.
I pray they learn, I pray they grow,
I pray one day they finally know…
Final Chorus (lift)
Pain is hard… but hope is real,
time can mend what hearts can’t heal,
And if you wake up strong today,
thank the Lord and find your way.
Be grateful for a priceless morning,
that peace of mind without a warning…
‘Cause a healthy heart and a quiet mind,
is the richest gift you’ll ever find.
Outro
Priceless morning…
just let me wake in peace.
