Backroads Redemption

歌詞

Down by the creek, where the light breaks slow That’s where I find the me I used to know Mud on my boots, but I’m cleansin' my soul These backroads teach what the city don’t show 【Verse 1】 Mama said “boy, you were born from clay,” Red dirt roots, we don’t run, we pray Sweat on my brow from the work all day But I’m buildin’ my truth in a crooked way Ain’t no silver spoons, just pinewood floors Church bell ringin’ through the screen door Still hear grandma hummin’ that hymn As I battle my demons with a bottle of gin 【Hook／サビ】 Down by the creek, where the light breaks slow That’s where I find the me I used to know Mud on my boots, but I’m cleansin' my soul These backroads teach what the city don’t show 【Verse 2】 I took wrong turns, yeah, I paid that price Tryna chase fast life under neon lights But the silence out here, man, it speaks so loud Like the wind in the pines when the sun goes down Had dreams of gold, but I found my peace In the buzz of the bugs and the whisperin’ trees Ain’t ashamed of my scars, they tell my tale Of a backwoods boy who refused to fail 【Bridge】 Deliverance ain't just a song on the stereo It’s the way you rise up from what tried to bury you It’s the sound of a shotgun shell in the field Echoed by faith that never yields 【Hook】 Down by the creek, where the light breaks slow That’s where I find the me I used to know Mud on my boots, but I’m cleansin' my soul These backroads teach what the city don’t show
