Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
I wasn’t born with silver on my plate,
Just a busted old barn and a crooked gate.
Granddad’s shop at the back of the land,
Smelled like oil and pine and a lifetime’s plans.
He put a hammer in my shaky hand,
Said, “Feel that weight? That’s where you’ll stand.
The world might spin on money and fame,
But a good, true board still knows your name.”

[Chorus]
‘Cause I’ve got grain in my veins,
Sawdust in my hair,
A heart that beats like a steady old planer
Cutting truth from the air.
Let ‘em chase tall towers,
I’ll chase true lines and frames.
This isn’t just work, it’s love,
Running deep like grain in my veins.

[Verse 2]
Every scar on this bench has a story to tell,
Every dent in the top where a project fell.
I’ve snapped a few bits, burned more than one edge,
Cursed my way back to the same old pledge:
I won’t quit just ‘cause a board fights back,
I’ll sharpen my steel and reset the track.
There’s a quiet kind of prayer in a second try,
With a pencil line straight and a lifted eye.

[Chorus]
‘Cause I’ve got grain in my veins,
Sawdust in my hair,
A heart that beats like a steady old planer
Cutting truth from the air.
Let ‘em chase tall towers,
I’ll chase true lines and frames.
This isn’t just work, it’s love,
Running deep like grain in my veins.

[Bridge]
When the day runs long and the pay runs thin,
And the doubt in my chest tries to move right in,
I hit that switch, hear the motor start,
Feel the teeth bite down on the doubt in my heart.
There’s a rhythm in the whine of a rip-cut line,
Saying, “One more pass, you’re gonna be fine.”
You don’t measure a man by the breaks he gets,
But by the joints he fixes when the glue ain’t set.

[Verse 3]
Someday these hands will slow and shake,
And I’ll pass this shop on, give what I can’t take.
I’ll tell that kid standing where I once stood,
“Listen close to the language of wood.
Respect every knot, every twist and turn,
Let your mistakes be the lessons you learn.
If you give your soul to the grain and the glue,
This craft will give a piece back to you.”

[Final Chorus]
‘Cause we’ve got grain in our veins,
Sawdust in our hair,
Hearts that beat like a steady old planer
Cutting truth from the air.
Let the world chase its noise,
We’ll chase true lines and frames.
We’re woodworkers, builders, believers—
With a fire in our hands and grain in our veins.

[Tag]
So let the shavings fall and the long days come,
As long as there’s wood, we’re never done.
Turn the lights on low, let the silence reign—
There’s a whole world waiting
In a board of grain.
