Unforgiving Journey

[Intro]
Dust rises in the harsh morning light
A lone rider on a restless flight
Lapel sack, six-shooter tight
Through the wilds, he fights the night

[Verse 1]
Bound for nowhere, chasing an elusive dream
Across the rugged mountains, where the cold winds scream
Pioneer's spirit, nothing’s what it seems
Endless plains stretch, silent and extreme

[Pre-Chorus]
Every step, a story etched in dust
Carry his hope, and break the rust
With every shot, a sacred trust
His only allies, dirt and dust

[Chorus]
Long, unforgiving, perilous ride
Through mountains high and valleys wide
With only a sack and pistol by his side
In the Wild West, where legends collide

[Verse 2]
Sun beats down, shadows cast doubt
In every heartbeat, he’s pushing out
A trail of memories, silent shouts
Searching for purpose, what he’s about

[Pre-Chorus]
Storms may come and winds may cry
On this journey, low and high
His resolve will never die
Underneath the endless sky

[Chorus]
Long, unforgiving, perilous ride
Through mountains high and valleys wide
With only a sack and pistol by his side
In the Wild West, where legends collide

[Bridge]
Stars above, the only guide
Through the darkness, he’s allied
Facing fears, with each stride
Freedom’s just beyond the tide

[Outro]
So he rides on, through dusk and dawn
In this perilous, unyielding marathon
With only faith and a gun drawn
Until the break of a new dawn
