lyrics

Pave My Own Day


Verse 1:
I took my 4x4 down that dusty road,
The sun was setting, the sky turned to gold,
With my lifted truck and a heart full of dreams,
Thought I could conquer the world, or so it seemed.

Chorus:
But now I'm mud boggin' through my past,
In a trail rig that can't seem to last,
Every turn, every rock, I crawl alone,
The path I chose is a rugged one I've known.

Verse 2:
Lockers engaged, wheels diggin' deep,
Through the night I ride, while others sleep,
But the memories linger like shadows on the hill,
As I wheel through this world, tryin' to find a thrill.

Chorus:
But now I'm mud boggin' through my past,
In a trail rig that can't seem to last,
Every turn, every rock, I crawl alone,
The path I chose is a rugged one I've known.

Bridge:
Snorkel high, breathing in the night,
Winch on the front, ready for the fight,
Articulation keeps me holding on tight,
Through sorrow and regret, I chase the light.

Verse 3:
Overlanding through my own mistakes,
Crawling gear slow, no room for breaks,
Skid plates worn, but they tell my tale,
Of heartache and loss on this off-road trail.

Chorus:
But now I'm mud boggin' through my past,
In a trail rig that can't seem to last,
Every turn, every rock, I crawl alone,
The path I chose is a rugged one I've known.

Outro:
Though the road is rough, I'll never let go,
I'll keep on truckin' through the highs and lows,
With my 4x4, I'll find my way,
In this world of mud, I'll pave my own day.
