Lyrics
Shape Of My Soul
Cold nights gravel road my back to the wall
Hand-me-down dreams, I was riskin' it all
Mama on a late shift, dad on overtime
Learned to survive down to my last dime
I remember nights with the lights turned low
Wonderin' how far a heart could go
Didn't have much, but I held on tight
To a little bit of faith and a whole lotta fight
Chorus
Forged from fire left in the dust
Ate dirt, felt pain, now I can't be touched
Every line in my hands has a story told
From darkness to hope down a torn up road
I buried my past where the wild winds blow
Now it's written in the shape of my soul...
Some voices talking like they always knew
But they weren't there when I had all to lose
Took hits, bounced back there's no other way
Ain't nobody comin', I only got a plan A
Now standing in the light I used to chase
Every mile and tear engraved on my face
Repeat Chorus
There's emotional scars under my hood
But a quite pride where doubts once stood
They'll tell you just quit, but never let it die
Even when the world says - "don't even try"
Repeat Chorus
