[Verse 1]
The weight of words, the cracks in stone,
What we built got shook down to the bone.
We’ve stood through fire, we’ve lost some trust,
Seen dreams rust out and turn to dust.
But we’re still standin’ through the mess,
With nothin’ left but forward steps.
[Chorus]
'Cause the ground behind us broke and bled,
But the road ahead still lies unsaid.
We can’t go back to where we were,
But we can move through what we’ve learned.
Let the past be what it cost,
Let the future feel like somethin’ lost —
That we just found again, instead.
The ground gave way...
But not the road ahead.
[Verse 2]
Mistakes were made, yeah, we’ve got scars,
Wrote our truth in broken bars.
We’ve walked on glass, we’ve bit our tongues,
Burned bridges we can’t outrun.
But the map don’t end at the damage done,
There’s still miles left under that sun.
[Chorus – Repeat with more soul]
The ground behind us cracked and cried,
But the road ahead still opens wide.
We can’t rewind, can’t clean it neat,
But we can fight with steadier feet.
Let the ashes mark what’s dead,
But let our steps write what’s ahead —
The past may haunt, but it won’t spread,
‘Cause the ground gave out...
Not the road ahead.
[Bridge – Soft reflection]
Every fall was just a turn,
Every bruise, a way to learn.
And if we carry all that pain,
We’ll build it into somethin’ brave.
[Final Chorus – Let it ring]
The ground behind us fell away,
But we’re still here, still on our way.
We can’t control what’s come and gone,
But we still get to choose the song.
Let the dust rise, let the fear shed —
We ain't done yet.
Not with the road ahead.
