Gripping the Reins - Adam Sams

I know I said I wouldn’t complain

When the weight became too much to bear

But that was before I felt all the strain

Of the work involved in getting where

I want to be

Steady me

Help me plant my feet

While I grit my teeth

Help me find my voice

It’s lost in all this noise

Come and set me free

Help me find my peace

While I work my hands to the bone

I know, I said I wouldn’t complain

When the going started getting rough

But now that I sit here gripping the reins

I begin to feel I’ve had enough

Of all this up and down

Steady me

Help me plant my feet

While I grit my teeth

Help me find my voice

It’s lost in all this noise

Come and set me free

Help me find my peace

While I work my hands to the bone

Please don’t leave me

Down and out and crawling back for more

I need a hand

I found out I can’t do this on my own

Trying to has left me here alone

Has left me on my own

Steady me

Help me plant my feet

While I grit my teeth

Help me find my voice

It’s lost in all this noise

Come and set me free

Help me find my peace

While I work my hands to the bone
