Old Soul Radio

[Verse 1]
Phone in my hand
Heart in another time
Granddad’s records spinning
In a world that skips the lines
They talk in short replies
I write letters in my head
I miss front porch conversations
With the living and the dead
[Chorus]
I’m an old soul on your new world radio
Singing ‘bout things you scroll right past
Slow dance heart in a fast-lane video
Trying to make the moment last
Yeah
I’m out of place but I’m still gonna glow
I’m an old soul on your new world radio
[Verse 2]
I still bow my head
At a flashing traffic light
Pray for strangers I don’t know
On a crowded Friday night
They chase every trend
Like it’s water in a drought
I’m still learning how to listen
More than I run my mouth
[Chorus]
I’m an old soul on your new world radio
Singing ‘bout things you scroll right past
Slow dance heart in a fast-lane video
Trying to make the moment last
Yeah
I’m out of place but I’m still gonna glow
I’m an old soul on your new world radio
[Bridge]
I don’t hate this age
I just don’t fit its clothes
Ripped up jeans
Sunday shoes
That’s how it goes (oh yeah)
If loving deep and staying true is “doing it wrong”
Then let me be wrong
Let me be strong
[Chorus]
I’m an old soul on your new world radio
Singing ‘bout things you scroll right past
Slow dance heart in a fast-lane video
Trying to make the moment last
Yeah
I’m out of place but I’m still gonna glow
Turn me up loud
Let the whole town know
I’m an old soul
On your new world radio

Male vocals, raw and a little raspy, with stacked harmonies on the hook and a small churchy choir answering the last chorus. Drums push a mid-tempo groove, bass warm and round, slide guitar fills weaving between phrases. Energy builds from laid-back verses to a wide, open-armed final chorus., soul, country rock, grunge, gospel
