Raw Soul Back to America

Yeah

We bringing that raw unfiltered soul back to America

Not the polished kind not the plastic kind not the kind they package and sell

Im talkin front porch memories late night talks love thats been tested

Pain with a pulse joy with a heartbeat

Real stories real people real life

So sit down take a breath and let your soul remember where it came from

I remember Grandmas kitchen fried chicken smellin right

Radio playin slow blues deep into the night

Mama workin two jobs just to keep us on our feet

Grandma prayin for a blessing while she stirrin that sweet tea

And the neighbors lookin out even if they aint kin

Everybody outside when the summer days begin

We aint had much but we had love to spare

A whole lotta heart in the middle of nowhere

We bringing that raw soul back to America

The kind you feel when the pain get heavy on ya

Front porch hymns backyard laughter

We the love the truth the story after

Ohhh we bringing that raw soul back to America

Let the church say amen let the skies remember us

We the heartbeat we the light we the song in the dark of night

We bringing that raw soul back to America

Now the world move fast everybody tryna shine

Picture perfect life like everything fine

But the truth in the cracks in the scars we hid

In the nights we cried in the prayers we did

Aint no shame in the struggle its the proof that we grew

And the love we give now came from what we went through

So grab your chair come sit by the fire

Let the blues lift you higher and higher

We bringing that raw soul back to America

Not the fake loud talk but the real kind carry ya

Front porch hymns backyard laughter

We the love the truth the story after

Ohhh we bringing that raw soul back to America

Let the heavens open up and remember us

We the heartbeat we the light we the song in the dark of night

We bringing that raw soul back to America

Yeah

They tried to replace the real with the fast and the easy
