I’ll Be the Storm You Can’t Outrun

I’ve been the spark, I’ve been the flame, The curse that never learned its name. Tried to change, tried to kneel, But mercy don’t cut through steel.

I’ve lost more souls than I can count, Paid my dues, still ain’t the amount. Now the sky don’t talk, it just bleeds rain, And I’ve made peace with pain.

I’ll be the storm you can’t outrun, The reckoning that don’t come undone. You can pray for light, you can beg the sun, But I’ll be the storm you can’t outrun.

I gave my heart to the blacktop dust, My word to the wind, my soul to trust. But the road don’t love, it just remembers, Every mile and every ember.

The thunder laughs, the lightning hums, A hymn for what I’ve become. You can hide your name, you can fake your dawn, But I’m still ridin’ on.

“I don’t chase men anymore. I chase ghosts — And they still run.”

I’ll be the storm you can’t outrun, The fire after the gun. Every sin you thought you won — I’ll carry every one. Yeah, I’ll be the storm you can’t outrun, Till the last light’s gone.

I’ll be the storm you can’t outrun, Your shadow when the day’s begun. Every truth you tried to shun, I’ll be the storm — and I ain’t done. Yeah, I’ll be the storm you can’t outrun, And I’ll ride till the world comes undone.

“Every storm starts with a man who stopped running.”
