Acceptance Sounds Like Peace

Original North Georgia slow reflective gospel-soul duet, 97 BPM, warm organic studio mix, Honky-tonk piano, slap bass, fiddle, clean electric fills, swing drums, Distinctive male Bubba lead and unmistakably female Darlene second verse and duet chorus, Clear storytelling, memorable melodic hooks, live ensemble feel

[Intro: original instrumental Holler motif] [Verse 1: Bubba, mature male] I kept a fist around the weather Like I could tell the rain to stop I argued with the years behind me And watched the sunlight leave the clock [Chorus: Bubba male; Darlene female harmony] Acceptance sounds like peace to me Not a chain but room to breathe I can face the things that happened Without agreeing they were right I can choose my next true step And set my old resistance free [Verse 2: Darlene, female lead] I can't remake another person Or unlive what I've been through But I can be kind to the one here And let tomorrow bring what's new [Bridge: duet] Some roads call for standing firmly Some for laying burdens down Understanding comes in seasons [Final Chorus: full Holler Shakers] Acceptance sounds like peace to me Not a chain but room to breathe I can face the things that happened Without agreeing they were right I can choose my next true step And set my old resistance free [Outro: held resolved chord, no abrupt cutoff]
