Built Different

Lyrics

[INTRO] (Soft guitar riff, distant city hum, then 808 thumps) [VERSE 1] Concrete jungle, steel and sweat, dawn before the first call, Two trucks in the parking lot, they’re hauling dreams on a brawl. The radio hums a prayer, the radio plays old hymns, In the back of that van, hope's the only thing that wins. Brick by brick, a mason builds, the skyline rises high, His hands are scarred, but he keeps going, 'cause the sky's still the same. A farmer in the field, the sun is burning red, He digs his boots into the dirt, and he says, “I'll still be fed.” [PRE-CHORUS] Neighbors pull the boxes, neighbors lift the load, When the world keeps rolling on, we keep the road. [CHORUS] We’re the ones that keep the light burning, Through the rising cost, through the cold winter’s sting. Hands on the wheel, hearts in the fight, We stand as one, we’re never giving up, We’re the heart of this land, we keep moving forward. [VERSE 2] First responders in the night, their badges gleam in flame, They’re saving lives with a steady beat, in the rain they claim. Veterans on the porch, watch the stars flicker slow, They keep the country strong, and let the flags still glow. Mama’s got the laundry line, Dad’s got the old truck in tow, Three kids on a porch swing, watching the stars glow. The factory lights flicker, the shift ends at three, The family still huddles, they’re chasing the dream. [Cinematic Pause] (Beat drops, 808 boom, guitar rises) [HOOK] (Chant) We’re the heart that beats, that never sleeps, (Verse) We’re the hands that lift the world, that never quits, (Bridge) We’re the voice that sings, that never breaks, (Outro) We’re the soul that carries, that never fades. [BRIDGE] From the truck stop to the highway, we’re standing strong, Through the darkest nights, we’re holding the song
