Doubt doesn’t disappear when you find your courage. It simply loses its authority over your
decisions. You don’t have to silence your fears to move forward. ~Jack Quill
X(yz+1): Everyone has doubts. Some whisper we’re not good enough, others insist we’ve waited too long. Louder Than Your Doubts is a Southern rock anthem about refusing to let fear, missed opportunities, or yesterday’s disappointments dictate tomorrow’s possibilities. You can’t rewrite your past, but you can still take charge of what comes next.
LOUDER THAN YOUR DOUBTS:
Oh, yeah…
Some roads don’t lead where you thought they’d go…
But that don’t mean you’re done travelin’!
I’ve walked through shadows I didn’t understand,
Watched my best intentions slip right through my hands.
Had a thousand good ideas and a hundred reasons why,
I should put ’em on a shelf and let another dream die.
I kept waitin’ for the moment when the stars would all align,
Till I figured out that moment wasn’t ever gonna find mine.
There’s a voice inside that whispers,
“Boy, you’ve waited way too long.”
But I’ve still got fire in my belly,
And I’ve still got one more song!
I’m gonna be louder than my doubts!
Let the fire in and the fear run out!
I’ve got scars, I’ve got miles, I’ve got stories to tell,
I’ve been halfway to heaven and a few miles through hell!
You can count me down, but don’t count me out,
I’m gonna live my life louder than my doubts!
Oh, louder than my doubts!
I’ve seen good people standing at an open door,
Afraid to take a step toward what they’re hoping for.
They keep rehearsin’ every word they’ll never say,
Second-guessin’ every chance until it slips away.
But a life spent playin’ safe ain’t a guarantee,
And the biggest chains we wear are sometimes ones nobody sees.
You don’t have to know the ending,
You don’t have to see the road,
You just gotta take that first step,
And find out how far you’ll go!
I’m gonna be louder than my doubts!
Let the fire in and the fear run out!
I’ve got scars, I’ve got miles, I’ve got stories to tell,
I’ve been halfway to heaven and a few miles through hell!
You can count me down, but don’t count me out,
I’m gonna live my life louder than my doubts!
I can’t get back the years I’ve lost,
Or change the price that living cost.
I can’t erase the roads I’ve walked,
Or take back every chance I talked.
But I can choose what happens now,
Stand back up and take my bow.
I ain’t the man I might’ve been,
But I’m not finished becoming him.
I’m gonna be louder than my doubts!
Let the fire in and the fear run out!
I’ve got scars, I’ve got miles, and a heart that still believes,
There’s a whole lot more inside of me than yesterday could see!
I can’t get back the years I’ve lost,
But I won’t give tomorrow away!
You can count me down, but don’t count me out,
I’m gonna live my life louder than my doubts!
They said it’s too late!
It ain’t too late!
They said slow down!
Not today!
Turn it up, let the whole world hear,
We’re still standing, we’re still here!
Louder than my doubts!
Louder than my doubts!
