KORB - The Unsong Hero

Somewhere on the edge of town in an old dusty bar Singing to an empty room he strums his beat-up guitar For years he's played to silence yearning for a spark Lost in songs he always knew only heard in the dark Worn-out boots and calloused hands dreams that never fade Each note a whisper in the wind for all the lives they’ve played Friends say to pack it up the road’s too long and cruel But he's got fire in his soul even when they're cruel And one day the lights will shine the crowd will sing along The unsung hero rises finds a place where he belongs From hidden corners of the world to where the spotlight gleams He worked through all the silence chasing down his dreams Now whispers turn to echoes with every strum and shout Heartache turns to harmony the world’s hearing him out The journey shaped his spirit made a mountain from a stone Now he's standing on the summit singing on his own No more empty barroom nights just stadiums and cheers He’s the voice they never knew but followed all these years From the shadows of obscurity to center stage so bright The unsung hero’s broken through now bathed in golden light And one day the lights will shine the crowd will sing along The unsung hero rises finds a place where he belongs From hidden corners of the world to where the spotlight gleams He worked through all the silence chasing down his dreams
