Yeah… I ain’t the storm, I’m just the thunder that followed.

I been ridin’ on grace I didn’t earn,
Fires I didn’t start still helped me burn.
Every hand that held me up from low,
Built the wings that taught me slow.
From mama’s prayers to my brother’s fight,
Every word lit another night.
Ain’t no self-made, that’s just pride in disguise,
We all shine off somebody else’s rise.

I thought I was the reason the stars hit right,
But I just caught a glow from borrowed light.

Yeah, I’m singin’ under borrowed sky,
Thankin’ every name that got me by.
Every tear, every hand, every mile of try,
Put the wind in my wings when I couldn’t fly.
Yeah, it’s borrowed sky, not mine alone,
Built from hearts that made me home.
If I’m still standin’, that’s the reason why —
I’m livin’ under borrowed sky.

Coach said, “Boy, you play too rough,”
But life hit harder, I just got tough.
Every no-show stage, every empty crowd,
Taught me how to pray out loud.
Now I’m here, but I still see them,
All the faces I lost in the wind.
If they lookin’ down, I hope they know —
They lit this road before I rolled.

I thought I was the reason the stars hit right,
But I just caught a glow from borrowed light.

Yeah, I’m singin’ under borrowed sky,
Thankin’ every name that got me by.
Every tear, every hand, every mile of try,
Put the wind in my wings when I couldn’t fly.
Yeah, it’s borrowed sky, not mine alone,
Built from hearts that made me home.
If I’m still standin’, that’s the reason why —
I’m livin’ under borrowed sky.

To the ones who stayed when I was quiet,
Who saw gold in the grit and didn’t buy it.
You gave me faith when I lost the sound,
You turned my dirt to solid ground.
Ain’t no trophy can hold that truth —
Every shine I got came from you.

Yeah, I’m singin’ under borrowed sky,
Grateful eyes and a lifted mind.
Every light I see, I know it’s tied,
To every love that never died.
Yeah, it’s borrowed sky, where grace don’t lie,
Proof that faith can multiply.
If I fall, I’ll still rise high —
‘Cause I’m livin’ under borrowed sky.
