Stay the Course

Lyrics

Verse 1
You came too far to fold
Too much pain turned gold
Every scar you wore
Got you here, got you more

Old life call your name
But you know that game
It look easy for a second
Then it drag you back to the wreckage

You done built that fire
You done raised it higher
So when doubt get loud
Keep your feet on the ground

Pre-Chorus
Stop
Look in that mirror
Ask your heart
What’s really clearer?

Is it the old road
Or the hard road?
One heals slow
One steals soul

Chorus
Stay the course
Stay the course
Don’t go back now
Don’t break your torch

Stay the course
Stay the course
Your soul know truth
Your heart keep score

Verse 2
When the past come sweet
With a crooked smile
Remember what it cost
Every mile, every mile

You don’t owe that ghost
Another place to live
You got breath, you got choice
You got more left to give

So wait, but listen deep
Not to them, but to you
Let your spirit speak
That’s the real one in the room

You’re not chasing easy
You’re choosing free
One day at a time
That’s recovery

Bridge
If the old you calls
Let it ring out
You’ve got a new name
And a stronger ground

No shame in the climb
No shame in the night
You can still be here
You can still be right

Chorus
Stay the course
Stay the course
Don’t go back now
Don’t break your torch

Stay the course
Stay the course
Your soul know truth
Your heart keep score
