Earn another sunrise

Verse 1

That alarm goes off before the sun,

Another day’s already begun.

Coffee’s strong, but I still feel tired,

Running on grit instead of fire.

Steel-toe boots by the front door,

Been down this road a thousand times before.

My body’s worn, but my heart still knows,

You don’t grow by taking the easy road.

Pre-Chorus

Some mornings I wanna roll back over,

Forget the weight that’s on my shoulders.

But nothing worth having comes easy in this life…

So I get up one more time.

Chorus

I’m gonna earn another sunrise,

One more day, one more sacrifice.

I’m the most burnt out I’ve ever been,

But the dawg in me still won’t quit.

Too many people waiting to see me fall,

Too many hoping I lose it all.

With discipline, focus, faith, and grind,

I’ll keep giving everything that’s mine.

As long as these boots still fit these feet,

I’ll earn another sunrise before I sleep.

Verse 2

The clock don’t care if I’m sore today,

The bills don’t stop, they still get paid.

Every blister, every ache,

Is another promise that I didn’t break.

I’m not chasing fame or gold,

Just trying to build a life back home.

One honest day’s worth of sweat and pride,

That’s enough to help me sleep at night.

Pre-Chorus

Some mornings I wanna roll back over,

Forget the weight that’s on my shoulders.

But nothing worth having comes easy in this life…

So I get up one more time.

Chorus

I’m gonna earn another sunrise,

One more day, one more sacrifice.

I’m the most burnt out I’ve ever been,

But the dawg in me still won’t quit.

Too many people waiting to see me fall,

Too many hoping I lose it all.

With discipline, focus, faith, and grind,

I’ll keep giving everything that’s mine.

As long as these boots still fit these feet,

I’ll earn another sunrise before I sleep.

Bridge

Someday these hands won’t be this rough,

Someday I’ll finally slow it up.

But until that day, I’ll answer the call…

Giving my best through it all.

Final Chorus

I’m gonna earn another sunrise,

Thanking God for another try.

No matter how heavy this world may get,

I ain’t finished fighting yet.

Discipline, focus, faith, and grind,

They’re the reasons I survive.

So when tomorrow’s alarm cuts through the night,

I’ll stand back up… and earn another sunrise.

Outro

The sun don’t rise because life is easy…

It rises to remind us we’ve been given another chance.

So I’ll lace up my boots, bow my head,

And earn another sunrise.

I’ll earn another sunrise…

Yeah, I’ll earn another sunrise…

As long as these hands can still hold on,

As long as this heart keeps beating strong.

I’ll answer the call…

I’ll keep the faith…

I’ll never quit…

I’ll earn another sunrise…

I’ll earn another sunrise…

One more day.

One more mile.

One more prayer.

One more sunrise.
