Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I spent years with my dreams in the dust,
Praying on luck, but it never showed up.
Watched my hopes drift away like smoke in the blue,
Till I learned dreams don’t walk unless you do.
[Verse 2]
Stared at the stars, waiting on a sign,
As if the heavens would redraw the line.
But no map was written in the midnight hue,
The sky just whispered, “It’s up to you.”
[Verse 3]
I built castles out of talk, tall and proud,
But the first hard rain washed them all down.
Words without work turn hollow and small,
A house without hands is no house at all.
[Pre-Choruses]
Are you waiting on the wind to carry you through
Or will you stand and fight for what’s true
[Chorus]
Don’t just wish, when you can do,
The fire you need is already in you.
Every dream’s a road that waits for your boots,
The world won’t change ‘til you move it through.
So don’t just WISH—when you can DO!
[Verse 4]
My hands were idle, but my heart was loud,
I dreamed of stages, I dreamed of crowds.
But a dream’s just smoke without sweat to bind,
So I put my back where I set my mind.
[Verse 5]
Wishing wells run dry if you never dig deep,
And hope won’t bloom if you only sleep.
The ground gives fruit when the plow cuts through,
Faith comes alive when the work is true.
[Verse 6]
I traded my “someday” for blood and sweat,
And the fire in my chest ain’t burned out yet.
Every scar I wear is a lesson earned,
Every callus proof of the tables turned.
[Pre-Choruses]
Do you pray for change while you stand still
Or will you move the stone with your own will
[Chorus]
Don’t just wish, when you can do,
The fire you need is already in you.
Every dream’s a road that waits for your boots,
The world won’t change ‘til you move it through.
So don’t just WISH—when you can DO!
[Verse 7]
Every hammer swing sings louder than doubt,
Each nail I drive keeps fear pushed out.
The seed won’t rise if the soil ain’t torn,
But the harvest comes when the field is worn.
[Verse 8]
The road gets rough, but my boots hold true,
Each mile’s a promise I made to you.
Every stumble teaches, every wound heals slow,
But you only find strength by the miles you go.
[Verse 9]
The sky don’t move till you spread your wings,
No dream survives without real things.
Faith ain’t a whisper—it’s a working song,
A melody you sing by pushing on.
[Pre-Choruses]
Do you trust the stars to draw your plan
Or will you take the world in your own hands
[Chorus]
Don’t just wish, when you can do,
The fire you need is already in you.
Every dream’s a road that waits for your boots,
The world won’t change ‘til you move it through.
So don’t just WISH—when you can DO!
[Verse 10]
Every sunrise writes a brand-new page,
Another chance to break the cage.
Don’t die in the dark with your fire untold,
Let the daylight shape what your hands can hold.
[Verse 11]
I’ve seen too many souls fade away,
Waiting on tomorrow while they lost today.
Dreams on a shelf collect the dust,
But the clock won’t stop—you rise or rust.
[Verse 12]
Now I stand where the wishing ends,
And the doing begins with my two hands.
The past is gone, but the truth shines clear:
You build your dream, or it disappears.
[Pre-Choruses]
Do you whisper dreams into the night
Or will you wake and live them in daylight
[Chorus]
Don’t just wish, when you can do,
The fire you need is already in you.
Every dream’s a road that waits for your boots,
The world won’t change ‘til you move it through.
So don’t just WISH—when you can DO!
