Lyrics
Verse 1
Everybody mad ’bout somethin’ online,
Fightin’ in the comments like it payin’ ’em time.
Group chat dingin’ like a slot machine,
Whole world livin’ in a four-inch screen.
Who said what, who wore what dress,
Who unfollowed who, who subtweetin’ next.
I try to care, but my give-a-damn’s done,
I’d rather watch a sunset than a pile-on run.
Pre-Chorus
Call me old, call me out of touch,
But my peace of mind don’t need that much.
Chorus
I can’t keep up and I don’t wanna,
Y’all chase storms, I’ll chase that sun up.
You can have the outrage, I’ll take the breeze,
Front porch swing and some lazy trees.
Let the world spin fast, I’ll let it go,
Sip my coffee, watch the day roll slow.
If simple makes me look like I’m fallin’ behind—
I’ll fall behind
With a quiet mind.
Verse 2
News on the TV scream doom all day,
Sellin’ me fear like a BOGO sale.
Neighbor mad ’cause his team lost twice,
Lady at the store chewin’ out the price.
I got a dog that don’t care who’s right,
Kids laughin’ in the sprinkler light.
Wife in the kitchen hummin’ some hymn,
That’s the kind of “breaking news” I wanna live in.
Pre-Chorus
Life’s too short to be glued to a fight,
When there’s fireflies blinkin’ in the yard at night.
Chorus
I can’t keep up and I don’t wanna,
You chase likes, I’ll chase that warm summer.
You can have the drama, I’ll take these fields,
Fresh-cut grass and a home-cooked meal.
Let the world spin wild, I’ll let it roar,
While we play cards at the kitchen floor.
If calm and kind mean I’m fallin’ behind—
I’ll fall behind
With a quiet mind.
Bridge
One day when I’m lookin’ back down the line,
I won’t miss one thread or headline.
I’ll just thank God for the days I chose
To turn the noise down
And watch the clover grow.
Final Chorus
I can’t keep up and I don’t wanna,
Y’all chase storms, I’ll chase that sun up.
You can have the outrage, I’ll keep my peace,
Front porch prayers and some good night’s sleep.
Let the whole world race, I’ll stroll instead,
Kiss my girl and then go to bed.
If slow and small mean I’m fallin’ behind—
I’ll fall behind…
With a quiet heart
And a quiet mind.
