The Rocking Chair

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Marvin Clarke was forty-six in Kingston by the bay Fixed up phones for a living and brought home just enough pay His hands were tired, his back was sore his dreams sat on the shelf He said, “I’ve got a family but I’m losing me myself” [Verse 2] Every bill felt like a thundercloud every month the same hard grind He clocked in with a heavy heart and a prayer in the back of his mind Then one small desk in the corner and one cheap mic came through A simple light, a laptop screen and a door he never knew [Pre-Chorus] He learned to speak his truth one story at a time No polished stage, no perfect room just faith and steady climb He let the tools do what they could and he did the rest One honest post, one finished song and he gave the world his best [Chorus] Rocking chair millionaire rich in the things that stay Rocking chair millionaire building a brighter day One voice, one hope, one flame one life to share and care Rocking chair millionaire that’s how he got there [Verse 3] He started making little clips before the sun was up AI helped shape the rough ideas when his courage ran dry and stuck Content every single day even when the views were small He showed up with a steady heart and that was worth it all [Pre-Chorus] Now neighbors hear him sing and his children sing along His old room turned into purpose his silence turned to song What he built can’t fit in money can’t be spent away It’s a name his son can carry when his hair turns gray [Chorus] Rocking chair millionaire rich in the things that stay Rocking chair millionaire building a brighter day One voice, one hope, one flame one life to share and care Rocking chair millionaire that’s how he got there [Bridge] If your hands are rough like Marvin’s if your road feels long and mean There’s a little light inside you waiting for a simple scene Not a palace, not a fortune just a chair and a song And the people who are hurting might be where you belong [Final Chorus] Rocking chair millionaire rich in the things that stay Rocking chair millionaire freedom found a way One voice, one hope, one flame one life to share and care Rocking chair millionaire that’s how he got there Comment ROCKING CHAIR... You could be the next Rocking Chair Millionaire.
