Prompt / Lyrics
(Verse 1 - Sparse acoustic guitar, rhythmic thumb-beat) Woke up with a heavy head Dragging my bones out the bed Coffee’s black and the morning’s cold Story’s getting a little old Yeah I put my work clothes on Before the stars are even gone (Pre-Chorus - Bass enters, slow building tension) It ain’t about the silver or the gold It’s about the stories that get told When the hands are rough, the spirit’s worn That’s where a better man is born (Chorus - Full band, soaring harmonic vocals, anthemic energy) You just show up and the tide will turn Keeping your sights on the things we yearn It’s a long road, it’s a jagged line Yeah just stay steady, you’re gonna shine Some days crawl, some days rise Some prayers loud, some prayers cried (Verse 2 - Driving blues-rock groove) I don’t always want to go To the place where I get told But there’s a comfort in the grind Leaving all the goods behind Yeah, the sweat is like a prayer Clearing out the dusty air (Guitar solo) (Chorus - Full band, soaring harmonic vocals, anthemic energy) You just show up and the tide will turn Keeping your sights on the things we yearn It’s a long road, it’s a jagged line Yeah just stay steady, you’re gonna shine Some days crawl, some days rise Some prayers loud, some prayers cried (Bridge - Gritty slide guitar, organ swells) One step, two step, through the door Getting that life worth living for You’re the engine, you’re the soul Lift your heavy mind, your weighted soul (Chorus - Full band, soaring harmonic vocals, anthemic energy) You just show up and the tide will turn Keeping your sights on the things we yearn It’s a long road, it’s a jagged line Yeah just stay steady, you’re gonna shine Some days crawl, some days rise Some prayers loud, some prayers cried (Back to acoustic guitar and fade out)
