[Verse 1] Got a ledger full of ghosts Names I crossed but never closed Old deals hanging from my coat Like rusted chains around my throat [Chorus] You can't move forward draggin' that past You can't drive fast with a shattered glass You wanna build somethin' Gotta cut that loose I'm walkin' out the fire With just mud on my boots [Verse 2] Daddy's debts and mama's prayers Stacked like crates on busted stairs I burned some bridges Let 'em fall Can’t haul ashes through a brick wall [Chorus] You can't move forward draggin' that past You can't drive fast with a shattered glass You wanna build somethin' Gotta cut that loose I'm walkin' out the fire With just mud on my boots [Bridge] I cashed out blame Let the river take it (oh yeah) Signed my own name On the life I'm makin' Can’t pour new faith In an old cracked jar So I leave that weight Right where my footsteps are [Chorus] You can't move forward draggin' that past You can't drive fast with a shattered glass You wanna build somethin' Gotta cut that loose I'm walkin' out the fire With just mud on my boots (hey!) Just mud on my boots

rock, Gritty swamp-blues rock with a humid bayou pulse; male vocals rough and dry, overdriven guitars snarling in open tunings, slinky funk-inflected bass and behind-the-beat drums. Verses stay low and conversational, kick heavy and minimal; chorus widens with gang shouts, swampy slide lines, and a call-and-response hook. Bridge strips to stomp and handclaps, then the full band crashes back with a final, cathartic refrain., blues-rock, raw, funk
