Lyrics
Here's to takin' a leap of faith I never could when I was seventeen
Expressing a willingness to take risks that were avoided in youth.
To puttin' it all on the line and not caring where the road may lead
Committing fully without concern about the uncertain future.
Lord knows I've never been the kind to settle for complacency
Rejecting a settled and stagnant life, seeking constant progress.
This life is all about grindin' to get where you're meant to be
Emphasizing the importance of hard work to achieve one's destiny.
So I wake up early and go to sleep late
Highlighting a demanding schedule with early mornings and late nights.
Tryin' to cram twenty hours in a day
Attempting to fit an extensive workload into a limited timeframe.
Ridin' half broke horses
Metaphorically riding through challenges and difficulties.
Puttin' life on a page
Turning life experiences into written expressions, possibly songs.
Searchin' for some radio play
Expressing the desire for recognition through airplay on radio stations.
Searchin' for some radio play
Reiterating the quest for acknowledgment through radio airplay.
Picked up my first guitar at a shop just on the edge of town
Recalling the initial connection with music by acquiring a guitar.
Took a few years of tryin' to find how I want to sound
Reflecting on the journey to discover a unique musical identity.
They say, "There ain't no money in music, you can't make a career of that."
Acknowledging the common belief that music may not be lucrative.
So I took to livin' most of my life on a horse's back
Choosing a life predominantly spent outdoors or in rural settings.
But I wake up early and go to sleep late tryin' to cram 20 hours in a day
Persistently working long hours to pursue musical aspirations.
Ridin' half broke horses
Continuing to face challenges metaphorically, akin to half-broke horses.
Puttin' life on a page
Translating life experiences into artistic expressions.
Searchin' for some radio play
Reiterating the pursuit of acknowledgment through radio exposure.
But I wake up early and go to sleep late tryin' to cram 20 hours in a day
Reemphasizing the intense and dedicated daily routine.
Ridin' half broke horses
Metaphorically facing and overcoming challenges in life.
Puttin' life on a page
Continuing to turn life experiences into artistic creations.
Searchin' for some radio play
Persisting in the quest for recognition through radio play.
Searchin' for some radio play
Reiterating the desire for acknowledgment through radio exposure.
Oh, I wake up early and go to sleep late tryin' to cram 20 hours in a day
Underlining the demanding daily schedule for pursuing dreams.
Ridin' half broke horses
Metaphorically navigating through challenges in life.
Puttin' life on a page
Continuing to transform life into artistic expressions.
Searchin' for some radio play
Persisting in the pursuit of recognition through radio airplay.
Yeah, I wake up early and go to sleep late tryin' to cram 20 hours in a day
Reiterating the dedication to a demanding daily routine for success.
Ridin' half broke horses
Continuing to face and overcome challenges, symbolized by horses.
Puttin' life on a page
Transforming life experiences into written or musical form.
Searchin' for some radio play
Persisting in the pursuit of acknowledgment through radio play.
Searchin' for some radio play
Reiterating the quest for recognition through radio airplay.
Oh, here's to taking a leap of faith I never could when I was seventeen
Reflecting on missed opportunities and the courage to take risks.
To puttin' it all on the line and not caring where the road might lead
Recommitting to putting everything on the line without fear of the unknown.
