Same Sunrise

I wake before the morning light

No alarm, my body knows

Coffee steaming in the silence

While the whole world sleeps below

Boots on gravel, cold truck seat

Headlights cut the empty road

Another day already waiting

Before the sun even shows

Sometimes I swear there’s more than this

Somewhere past this town

⸻

Every day the same sun rises

Same old road beneath these wheels

Working just to make a living

But forgetting how to feel

And every morning in the mirror

There’s a truth I can’t outrun

Every day feels just the same

And that man keeps getting older

⸻

Wednesday feels like Monday did

Time just dragging through the grind

Thinking about a quiet highway

Where I could leave this all behind

Maybe fishing by a river

Maybe music, maybe friends

Just a moment where the clock stops

Before the whole thing starts again

⸻

Friday night starts whispering

Like freedom calling me

⸻

Every day the same sun rises

Same old road beneath these wheels

Working just to make a living

But forgetting how to feel

And every morning in the mirror

There’s a truth I can’t outrun

Every day feels just the same

And that man keeps getting older

⸻

Saturday I feel alive again

Sunlight warming tired bones

For a moment I remember

I’m more than what I own

But Sunday night comes creeping in

Like a shadow at the door

And that quiet voice inside me says

“You were meant for something more”

⸻

Every day the same sun rises

Same long road and tired eyes

And I keep chasing dollars

While the years keep passing by

And every morning in the mirror

There’s a truth I can’t ignore

Every day feels just the same

But that man looks older than before

⸻

I wake before the morning light

Like I always do

But somewhere deep inside my chest

I’m still dreaming something new
