about

"Be There" is the first single from Grant Swift's 2023 release.

lyrics

Johnny brings the groceries right on time
Traveling down the interstate, he hits a light, chooses to wait
He follows feelings home, where he's reminded of troubled minds
Relieves the brake, momentum takes him, his fuel-injected engine likes to

Be there
Take a stance and stay there
Even if he don't care, it will be there anyway
Anyway

Tony likes Latoya, sends her songs
She takes him out, invites him home, he feels so good, chooses to moan
Their legs extend a web, containing tangled spines
Lands his gaze above the doorframe, a shelf of reclaimed wood for him to

Be there
Take a stance and stay there
Acting like he don't care, is still caring anyway

And I've been spending every moment
Trying to see the future, as if to avoid the torment
But the footsteps of a soldier, nor the letter in his hand
Will widow the poor person behind the door, till it opens and then they will

Be there
Take a stance and stay there
Even though it’s not fair, they will be there anyway
Anyway

Johnny brings the groceries right on time
Traveling down the interstate, he hits a light, chooses to wait
