Lyrics

I took a look with a gaze in the crowd

I observed the crowd with a focused look

Never seen something make me so proud

I have never witnessed something that makes me so proud

A picture perfect my artist friends

A perfect representation by my artist friends

Like the night before yeah we're gathered again

Similar to the night before, we are gathered again

Life gets messy and the world gets mean

Life becomes chaotic, and the world turns harsh

There's something very special about the local scene

There's something exceptionally special about the local music scene

They're at your shows and you're at theirs

People attend your shows, and you attend theirs

We paint it all together yeah everybody shares

We create art together; everyone contributes

Good luck, break a brush, snap a string

Wishing good luck, encouraging creativity, and acknowledging challenges like breaking a brush or snapping a string

Yeah just do your thing

Encouragement to pursue one's passion

Been building it up and learning for a while

We've been building our skills and learning for a long time

Relatable rhythms and similar styles

Connecting through relatable rhythms and similar musical styles

Early open mics where we bust our cheeks

Recalling early open mic experiences where effort was put in

Celebrating others yeah you unique

Celebrating others while recognizing individual uniqueness

It's not competition it's collectiveness

Emphasizing collaboration over competition

Your sisters and your brothers

Considering fellow musicians as sisters and brothers, bringing out the best in each other

Just bringing out your best

Playing together and singing in harmony

Playing with you and you're singing with me

Wishing good luck and acknowledging challenges in the artistic process

Play it all together it's harmony

Encouragement to continue pursuing individual creative paths

Good luck, break a brush, snap a string

Reiteration of good luck and facing challenges with confidence

Yeah just do your thing

Encouragement to express oneself authentically

List of many visions just a rolling through our heads

Reflecting on various creative visions circulating in our minds

Takes one to know one a beautiful mess

Acknowledging that understanding artistic beauty requires being a beautiful mess

Countless hours of creations we breath

Highlighting the countless hours spent on creative endeavors

Not just saying it yeah we're living the dream

Emphasizing that living the dream is more than just a saying

No break no wait no cut you no slack

No breaks, no waiting, no cutting slack—perseverance is essential

There's blues in the air and blood on the tracks

Expressing the presence of challenges and emotions in the artistic journey

Music it's work it's calm it's crazy

Music is described as both work and a source of calm and craziness

Happening now it has saved me

Asserting that music, happening in the present, has a transformative impact

Good luck, break a brush, snap a string

Wishing good luck and emphasizing the challenges in the creative process

Yeah just do your thing

Encouragement to continue pursuing individual creative paths

Drawing up posters and sending invites

Engaging in promotional activities like creating posters and sending invites

Actively promoting all dang night

Actively promoting musical events throughout the night

Set up and tear down

Setting up and tearing down, putting in effort for the collective success

If we each get fifty we'll call it a win

Considering a successful event even if each participant brings in a small contribution

A hundred sixty miles and smiles both ways

Highlighting the miles traveled and smiles shared in the pursuit of music

It's not for the money it's the love that pays

Emphasizing that the motivation is not financial but the love for music

Music's the doctor let's put it in order

Describing music as a healing force and advocating for its prioritization

Support your local supporter

Encouraging support for the local music scene

Good luck, break a brush, snap a string

Wishing good luck and acknowledging challenges in the artistic process

Yeah just do your thing

Reiteration of encouragement to express oneself authentically
