Love this track. I believe this is what they call “spoken word” music? This, coming from a country turned metal rock star. I love the defiance and self-belief emanating from this song.
Somebody wrote, “Quit” on a napkin
I took it out of my tip jar, laughin'
Like, “Damn, what a asshole, man”
I'm just a flat broke boy with a guitar askin'
For anybody to pay attention
It's not like anybody paid admission
I was just wishin' somebody would listen
Give me a shot, and I ain't talkin' 'bout Canadian Mist then
...
So before you choose hate, get to know a guy
He might end up a poet that was born to fly
He might end up a man of the people
Damn what a scene, a redneck glorified
With a stack of awards on a napkin
A bored little bastard wrote to try to warn a guy
Maybe I'm just petty 'cause they're just metal
Wait, then again, so am I...
Don't listen much to country music, but this one came as a recommended track via the algorithm. It's a really good song!
I hope you hit those gold streets on two wheels
I hope your mansion in the sky's got a ten-acre field
With some mud and some hubs you can lock in
Make some thunder, make 'em wonder how ya got in
Hide your beer, hide your clear from the Man Upstairs
Crank it loud, hold it down till I get there
And when I do, I hope you got some new stories to tell
Till then give heaven some hell ♪ ♫ ♪
Love the message in this song from Beartooth and Hardy. Don't ever give up on yourself. Keep trying to be the better version of yourself!
How many times have I said I was gonna be someone
When I get back onto my feet?
Tomorrow, I'm gonna make changes
'Cause today I can barely speak
I know how to pull myself out
And it's gonna hurt like Hell to set myself free
Just say it out loud, today's the day I stop f*cking around
And be the better me ♪ ♫ ♪
