Be the Rock (original song)

A new song written in the midst of a toxic work situation I'm blessed to no longer be a part of. Why does all the best inspiration come at the absolute worst moments?

Lyrics:
When you find you’re stuck in a hard place, no one there for you
Sometimes you gotta be the rock as the waves wash over you
I’ll say it again: there’s no one there for you, there’s nothing left for you
You can’t escape the truth, no recourse and no excuse

Sucks you dry when an eye for an eye makes a blind, deaf, and dumb mess of you
But that won’t fly through the timeless divide with the weight crushing down on you
I’ll say it again: it makes a mess of you, there’s no one left for you
There’s nothing left to do but dig deep and muddle through

Sometimes you gotta be the rock in this hard place
Sometimes you gotta be the rock in this hard place
Sometimes you gotta be the rock in this hard place

So take a drive down the miracle mile when the tank’s running dry on you
Sometimes you gotta be the rock and show the hard place what you can do
I’ll say it again: there’s no one there for you, but that’s really no excuse
Rise again to sink these blues, show the world what you can do
