Verse 1 Waking up was heavy Just as heavy as laying down Pain was waiting by the bedside Like it owned this tired town But I opened up the curtains Let a little morning in If today gives me an inch of earth I’ll plant my hope again Pre-Chorus I don’t need to see the whole road I just need somewhere to begin Chorus So I keep planting seeds with these tired hands In the hard-packed earth of where I am Not every field will rise up gold Not every dream will grow as told But one green shoot can crack the stone One small root can lead me home I may not see the harvest yet But something—something will grow Verse 2 I have watered empty gardens I have loved what wouldn’t stay I have watched the doors I prayed for Turn their faces the other way Still, the soil remembers everything Every tear and every try Even buried dreams are reaching For a glimpse of open sky Pre-Chorus I don’t need a perfect season I just need the faith to sow Chorus So I keep planting seeds with these tired hands In the hard-packed earth of where I am Not every field will rise up gold Not every dream will grow as told But one green shoot can crack the stone One small root can lead me home I may not see the harvest yet But something—something will grow Bridge I can hear my future calling From the other side of now She says, “Keep going, I’m still waiting You don’t have to know just how” Every no became direction Every scar became a map And the life I thought had passed me Was still growing through the cracks Final Chorus I’ll keep planting seeds with these healing hands Building something right where I am Maybe every field won’t turn to gold But every season leaves me more One green shoot becomes a row One brave step becomes a road I may not see the harvest yet But something beautiful will grow Outro When the morning feels like midnight And the road is moving slow I will put my hands back in the earth Because something will grow
