Wild Horses, Heavy Heart

[Verse 1]
Dust in my teeth
old rope in my hands
Wild horses in my chest
tryin to snap every band
Ran with the wolves
’til the pads got raw
Fast life, fast lies
now I limp when I walk
Eyes red, but I seen God
in a rusted rearview
Told me, “Boy, what you chasing
already chasing you”
Heart like a fence post
leaning, bout to fall
But your name cut deep
in the paint on my walls
[Chorus]
Wild horses in my head
run around, run around
Heavy bass in my chest
’til I drown, ’til I drown (yeah)
I’m a wolf outta breath
on the ground, on the ground
But I still chase your love
like the sun going down
Like the sun going down
I still chase your love
like the sun going down
[Verse 2]
Boots full of sand
from the days I was young
Thought tired was for old folks
now it sits on my tongue
We was two flat stones
skipping over that creek
Now we two blank screens
that don’t ever light, don’t speak
Saw your shadow in the road flare
smoke in the air
You said, “Faith ain’t a feeling,
it’s you showing up scared”
So I’m here with my fears
and this half-bent halo
Your picture on my dash
while the sky turns mango
[Chorus]
Wild horses in my head
run around, run around
Heavy bass in my chest
’til I drown, ’til I drown (oh)
I’m a wolf outta breath
on the ground, on the ground
But I still chase your love
like the sun going down
Like the sun going down
I still chase your love
like the sun going down
[Bridge]
If I drop these reins
will you still ride with me
If I bare these fangs
can you still find the sheep
If my knees hit dirt
and my faith falls short
Will your tired God
open up one more door (yeah)
[Chorus]
Wild horses in my head
run around, run around
Heavy bass in my chest
’til I drown, ’til I drown
I’m a wolf outta breath
on the ground, on the ground (so tired)
But I still chase your love
like the sun going down
Like the sun going down
I still chase your love
like the sun going down

rap, Moody trap rap with heavy, detuned bass and sparse, eerie keys. Male vocals, close and confessional, sit right in front of the mix. Verses ride a half-time bounce with ad-libs tucked wide; hook blooms with stacked vocals and a subtle, distorted choir pad for a haunted, epic feel. Final chorus lifts with extra harmonies and slightly brighter hats for a sunset-epilogue energy.
