Soundclash Contest - (Starts @ 1:00) "Prophet In Boots"
[Intro] [Acoustic Guitar] [Slow Build] [Reflective] [Verse 1] I was just a small-town boy, ridin' down them dirt roads, Sippin' whiskey by the bonfire, smokin' on some Marlboro's. We’d get high under those starry skies, never thought much of life, But lately, I've been seein' things that cut right through the night. [Pre-Chorus] I hear the whispers in the wind, tellin’ me things I can’t explain, Voices in the darkness callin' out my name. I don’t know how, but I see the signs, It’s like every vision’s warping time. [Synths] [Chorus] And I feel it comin’, somethin' I can’t hide, The prophecy’s burnin' deep inside. I'm seein' the future clear as day, What I think, it always finds a way. Maybe I'm just a country kid livin' free, But the truth is, the prophet is me. [Verse 2] It started at a party, drinkin’ beer, havin' fun, I saw Jimmy down by the river, he was on the run. I felt a chill, a vision flashed—he’d be caught in the tide, I screamed, "Jimmy, don't you jump, you're runnin' out of time!" [Pre-Chorus] He stopped and stared, fear in his eyes, And the river raged like a stormy sky. The next thing we knew, that water rose, If he’d jumped in, man, nobody knows. [Chorus] And I feel it comin’, somethin' I can’t hide, The prophecy’s burnin' deep inside. I'm seein' the future clear as day, What I think, it always finds a way. Maybe I'm just a country kid livin' free, But the truth is, the prophet is me. [Bridge] (Choir) I used to think these visions were just my mind playin’ games, Now I see it’s more, I’m callin’ out their names. With every drag of that cigarette, and every drink I take, I’m seein’ what’s real in this world of fake. [Chorus] And I feel it comin’, somethin' I can’t hide, The prophecy’s burnin' deep inside. I'm seein' the future clear as day, What I think, it always finds a way. Maybe I'm just a country kid livin' free, But the truth is, the prophet is me. [Outro] I’m just a country boy, but I see it all, Through the smoke and the whiskey, I heed the call. A prophet in boots, ridin' through these hills, I’m savin’ lives, even when it gives me chills. [Acoustic Fade] [Chorus] And I feel it comin’, somethin' I can’t hide, The prophecy’s burnin' deep inside. I'm seein' the future clear as day, What I think, it always finds a way. Maybe I'm just a country kid livin' free, But the truth is, the prophet is me. [Outro] I’m just a country boy, but I see it all, Through the smoke and the whiskey, I heed the call. A prophet in boots, ridin' through these hills, I’m savin’ lives, even when it gives me chills. [Acoustic Fade]
