Rolling On

Verse 1

Streetlights flicker on a quarter past two

Heartache and midnight, got nothing to lose

Broken glass shining under faded old rings

The past keeps calling, pulling on these strings

Pre-Chorus

Shadow on my shoulder, can’t shake it free

But I walk a little taller when the blues walks with me

Chorus

You got me waking up slow in the morning sun

Can’t outrun the trouble, nowhere left to run

Heavy in my blood like a river through my chest

I’m still searching for peace, won’t settle for less

Post-Chorus

Oh, oh, rolling on

Yeah, yeah, rolling on

Verse 2

Another blue note drifting down this old town street

Tired shoes keep moving, trying to find my heat

Clouds stacking high but I ain’t backing down

Keep my soul on the road and my ear to the ground

Pre-Chorus

Time’s got teeth and it won’t let go

I keep singing my truth down a winding road

Chorus

You got me waking up slow in the morning sun

Can’t outrun the trouble, nowhere left to run

Heavy in my blood like a river through my chest

I’m still searching for peace, won’t settle for less

Post-Chorus

Oh, oh, rolling on

Yeah, yeah, rolling on

Bridge

Wind cuts me honest, cuts me down to the bone

Every loss I remember, every seed I have sown

If mercy is a stranger, I’ll offer my hand

Let this fire keep burning, I’ll stay who I am

Chorus

You got me waking up slow in the morning sun

Can’t outrun the trouble, nowhere left to run

Heavy in my blood like a river through my chest

Outro

Moon’s climbing slower, painting silver on the road

Still beneath my sorrow, I carry the load

But hope keeps tapping, just behind my eyes

Ain’t nothing gonna stop me, I will rise

Post-Chorus

Oh, oh, rolling on

Yeah, yeah, rolling on
