[Verse 1]
Dust kicks up on a gravel road
The sun sinks low where secrets explode
My shadow’s long like a worn-out song
But the rhythm of my heart keeps dragging me along
[Chorus]
Heartland dreams don’t fade
They burn
They twist
They shout
They take their turn
Through the fields
Through the flames
You can’t outrun these heartland dreams
[Verse 2]
Barbed wire whispers in the midnight breeze
A hymn of hope tangled in the trees
My boots are worn
My soul’s still torn
But I’m chasing down a life I’ve yet to adorn
[Prechorus]
Can you hear the call
Through the thunder’s brawl
It’s the land
It’s the fight
It’s the fire tonight
[Chorus]
Heartland dreams don’t fade
They burn
They twist
They shout
They take their turn
Through the fields
Through the flames
You can’t outrun these heartland dreams
[Bridge]
808s and a six-string hum
A country road where the wild things run
Half rap
Half hymn
It’s all the same
Every chord
Every beat whispers my name
