Road Gets Easier
Lyrics
Verse 1
I seen folks fold
under weight and weather
Hands full of scars
but they still stand together
You wake up tired
with that old hurt talkin'
Every step feel heavy
like your boots been rockin'
But I know that road
I know that bend
I know how the worst nights
try to pull you in
Still you keep showin'
with that head held low
Little by little now
you gon' start to grow
Pre-Chorus
Take your time now
don't rush the climb
What feels so far
gets clear in time
Leave that shame back there
leave that pain behind
What you put in
comes back in kind
Chorus
The road gets easier
the road gets easier
(keep on walkin')
The road gets easier
the road gets easier
(keep on workin')
What you put in
is what you get
Brighter days
ain't met you yet
The road gets easier
the road gets easier
(keep on walkin')
Verse 2
Recovery ain't magic
it's a daily fight
It's water in the morning
and sleep at night
It's showing up sober
when your mind gets loud
It's one more honest hour
when you could back out
Put in that work
when nobody claps
Stack small wins
like planks in a shack
Every hard-earned mile
builds a better view
And the man you're becoming
comes back for you
Pre-Chorus
Take your time now
don't rush the climb
What feels so far
gets clear in time
Leave that shame back there
leave that pain behind
What you put in
comes back in kind
Chorus
The road gets easier
the road gets easier
(keep on walkin')
The road gets easier
the road gets easier
(keep on workin')
What you put in
is what you get
Brighter days
ain't met you yet
The road gets easier
the road gets easier
(keep on walkin')
Bridge
I know the bruises
I know the cost
I know the nights
you thought you were lost
But you ain't done
you ain't through
There's a stronger version
waitin' on you
So set it down
that heavy load
One step, one prayer
down that road
Chorus
The road gets easier
the road gets easier
(keep on walkin')
The road gets easier
the road gets easier
(keep on workin')
What you put in
is what you get
Brighter days
ain't met you yet
The road gets easier
the road gets easier
(keep on walkin')
