Moonlight creeping through the pine and haze,
I been chasing high times and low-down days.
Old truck rattling, radio hums slow pain,
Out here on this dirt, it’s whiskey for rain.
Spark that green, watch the ember glow,
Let the smoke fill my lungs and the sorrow go.
I ain’t searching for fame, I ain’t chasing no crown,
Just a man with a bottle trying not to drown.
Mama’s Bible’s on the dash, covered in dust,
She said “You’ll find peace if you learn to trust.”
But the world took my heart, and it never gave back,
So I poured out my soul in a bourbon glass crack.
Every sip tastes like another mistake,
Every hit just numbs the ache.
I pray to God but I hear no sound,
Just crickets and ghosts in this one-horse town.
Had a girl once, said she’d ride till the end,
But the whiskey won the war, now she’s just a friend.
Her perfume lingers when the nights get cold,
Reminds me of dreams I never told.
The sheriff knows me by the tail lights red,
Pulled me over once, thought I’d end up dead.
Said, “Boy, life ain’t meant to fade this way.”
But hell, I’m already halfway to gray.
I roll another joint, pour another glass,
Tryna find peace that don’t come to pass.
It’s like a tug of war with my own damn mind,
Between heaven’s gate and the devil’s line.
Got scars on my knuckles and smoke on my breath,
Living like I’m flirting with the edge of death.
My soul’s been tired since my first heartbreak,
Now I’m numb to love, only whiskey can wake.
See, this ain’t glory, it’s a ghost in disguise,
A rebel with pain burning deep in his eyes.
Outlaw rhythm in a world gone wrong,
Where the lonely nights keep writing my song.
If I don’t wake when the sun comes up,
Pour some Jack in my coffee cup.
Say a prayer for the man who lost his way,
Smoking weed, drinking whiskey till my life fades away.
I ain’t tryna preach, I ain’t tryna brag,
I just walk this road with a torn-up flag.
My story’s written in smoke and flame,
Country soul with a rap game name.
So when I go, don’t cry, don’t pray,
Just play my song and let it play.
Out here where the lost ones lay,
Smoking weed, drinking whiskey till my life fades away.
