Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Life in the wicked west Cards marked, eyes cold Boot prints in cracked earth Thunder under my soul Trust don’t live here long Names fade, tracks twist You blink, they’re gone for good Like smoke in morning mist [Chorus] I’m racing through this wicked west Horses flying, heart in my chest (hey!) Dodging bullets, breath on a wire Dust in my teeth, outrun the fire If I disappear past the canyon’s bend Will I find that old world That old world peaceful ending [Verse 2] Storm’s brewing, sky bruised black Fence posts lean like prayers Ground rumbling under hoof Ghost towns saying their last words Up one day, then buried Luck flips, coins spin You live on pure instinct Or you never ride again [Chorus] I’m racing through this wicked west Horses flying, heart in my chest Dodging bullets, breath on a wire Dust in my teeth, outrun the fire If I disappear past the canyon’s bend Will I find that old world That old world peaceful ending [Bridge] Let the old world crumble Let the gun smoke lift Lay my head where the hills hush Let the anger drift (oh) If the last shot echoes And the sky turns kind Maybe peace is a place You only reach in your mind [Chorus] I’m racing through this wicked west Horses flying, heart in my chest Dodging bullets, breath on a wire Dust in my teeth, outrun the fire If I disappear past the canyon’s bend Let me find that old world That hard-won peaceful ending

country, Dark cinematic country with male vocals, dusty slide guitar, and a slow, stalking beat that swells into a galloping, tom-heavy chorus. Low baritone verses, tense and close-miked; chorus jumps an octave with stacked harmonies. Fiddle drones under the hook, tremolo guitar and distant choir pad bloom near the end for a hard-won, peaceful resolution., world
