DIFFERENT ROADS, SAME DUST [VERSE 1 — FEMALE VOCAL A ONLY] Most days start before I’m ready, Somebody needs me, so I’m already moving. There’s always somewhere I’ve gotta be, Another thing waiting on me. But when I love, I’m all the way in, I’ll show up again and again. I’ll give everything for the ones I love, But when it comes to mine, I won’t back down. [PRE-CHORUS — FEMALE A AND FEMALE B TRADING LINES] [FEMALE VOCAL A ONLY] We’ve got hearts that’ll give all day— [FEMALE VOCAL B ONLY] And backbones that don’t bend either way. [FEMALE VOCAL A ONLY] We’ll give you kindness— [FEMALE VOCAL B ONLY] We’ll give you grace— [TWO FEMALE VOICES TOGETHER] But push too far, we’ll put you back in your place. [CHORUS — TWO FEMALE VOICES TOGETHER] Different roads, same dust, Different stories made the both of us. We love hard, we stand our ground, Carry more than we talk about. Running all day, doing what we do, Taking care of ours, making it through. We’ll give and give, but when we’ve had enough— [FEMALE VOCAL A ONLY] That’s enough. [FEMALE VOCAL B ONLY] Damn right. [TWO FEMALE VOICES TOGETHER] Different roads, same dust. [VERSE 2 — FEMALE VOCAL B ONLY] I’ve had years that left some marks on me, Learned who stays when life gets ugly. I don’t dress it up, I don’t fake okay, Some days I’m strong, some days I just make it through the day. I’ve been the shoulder, I’ve been the wall, Been the one they call when somebody falls. And I’ll still show up, that’s just who I am, But I finally learned where I need to stand. I ain’t got your road and you ain’t got mine, But I recognize tired when I see it in your eyes. Different kind of hurt, different kind of tough— Funny how we still kick up the same damn dust. [PRE-CHORUS — FEMALE A AND FEMALE B TRADING LINES] [FEMALE VOCAL B ONLY] We ain’t asking anybody to understand— [FEMALE VOCAL A ONLY] We just handle what life puts in our hands. [FEMALE VOCAL B ONLY] We’ll give you kindness— [FEMALE VOCAL A ONLY] We’ll give you grace— [TWO FEMALE VOICES TOGETHER] But don’t mistake either one for weakness in this place. [CHORUS — TWO FEMALE VOICES TOGETHER] Different roads, same dust, Different stories made the both of us. We love hard, we stand our ground, Carry more than we talk about. Running all day, doing what we do, Taking care of ours, making it through. We’ll give and give, but when we’ve had enough— [FEMALE VOCAL A ONLY] That’s enough. [FEMALE VOCAL B ONLY] You heard her. [TWO FEMALE VOICES TOGETHER] Different roads, same dust. [BRIDGE — FEMALE A AND FEMALE B TRADING LINES — STRIPPED DOWN] [FEMALE VOCAL A ONLY] I don’t need to know everywhere you’ve been— [FEMALE VOCAL B ONLY] To know what it looks like when somebody’s worn thin. [FEMALE VOCAL A ONLY] I don’t have to carry the weight that you do— [FEMALE VOCAL B ONLY] To stand beside you when it all hits the ground. [FEMALE VOCAL A ONLY] Maybe that’s enough— [FEMALE VOCAL B ONLY] Hell, sometimes that’s everything. [TWO FEMALE VOICES TOGETHER] Two different women, Still know what the other one means. [FINAL CHORUS — TWO FEMALE VOICES TOGETHER] Different roads, same dust, Different stories made the both of us. We love hard, we stand our ground, Carry more than we talk about. Still showing up, still doing what we do, Taking care of ours and making it through. We’ll give and give, but when we’ve had enough— [FEMALE VOCAL A ONLY] That’s enough. [FEMALE VOCAL B ONLY] Damn right it is. [TWO FEMALE VOICES TOGETHER] Different roads, Same dust.
