In the trail of dust, the soul finds calm
The scent of leather, the weight in the palm
Fire in the arena, a rider breathes a prayer
As the silence of the night fades away
The buckle gleams in the sudden light
Fear is a beast within my heart
But the rider calls, the work is my faith
In this sway and balance between life and death
Eight seconds for the world to stop, hey!
Eight seconds for us to shout
Fire in the arena, glory on the ground
Stomping boots, passion and prayer
Dust rising high, the dream floats by
Leave your destiny in the hands of the Moon
Life is a lesson written in the stars
Under the canopy of southern stars
A thousand miles logged in a rusted truck
Betting my life on a little bit of luck
Red clay stains the denim of my soul
One more ride to make a broken whole
From the Brazilian fields to the Texas gates
I'm the master of my fear, not a slave to fate
Eight seconds for the world to stop, hey!
Eight seconds for us to shout
Fire in the arena, glory on the ground
Stomping boots, passion and prayer
Dust rising high, the dream floats by
Leave your destiny in the hands of the Moon
Overcome!
Rise up!
Stand tall!
Fight, believe, answer the call
In the fall, in the sweat
We find ourselves
It's in the rhythm that fear prepares itself
In the fall, in the sweat
We find ourselves
It's in the rhythm that fear prepares itself
Eight seconds for the world to stop, hey!
Eight seconds for us to shout
Fire in the arena, glory on the ground
Stomping boots, passion and prayer
Dust rising high, the dream floats by
Leave your destiny in the hands of the Moon
Cláudio Fontenelle!
Houston, Texas!
Little by little
Just another mile
God bless the ride!
