[ [ a e s t h e t i c s ] ]
the softest shirts you’ll ever feel, the sound of a palm slapping against a football, tanned skin in a summer sun, black ray bans, a whistle hanging from his lips, a worn in pair of Nike’s that cost more than most people can spare, three jerseys framed over his momma’s mantle, praying nobody asks if he’s ready for football season, the scar along his arm from the surgery that ended his career, a wardrobe built around red and white, “boy, when are you gonna settle down and get us a future football star?”
[ "It’s A Guy Thing” - Dylan Schneider ]
A minute left in the game, my team’s about to lose, I’mma say that they’re not even though I know it’s through. Ask me if I give a damn that all your friends are dudes, I’mma swear that I don’t even though I know I do. It’s a guy thing, it’s in my wiring, built to be brave, just how we’re made.
[ "Southern Boy” - Jordan Rager ft. Jason Aldean ]
Southern sky, watching over you, looking down on your little town and the hearts that hold your roots. Southern boy, when the road starts getting rough, the wheels you’re on will get you home, no matter how deep the mud so keep singing them songs, keep carrying on.
[ "We Are Tonight” - Billy Currington ]
The night’s still young, never gonna get old, livin’ for today like there’s no tomorrow. Follow the grooves, the tires in the grass, stayin’ on the gas like we’re never comin’ back. It’s a Friday night, it’s a small town girl. Everything is right and we rule the world.
[ “Leave the Night On” - Sam Hunt ]
The sun’ll steal the magic from us soon, so let’s take one more trip around the moon.
[ "17” - Cross Canadian Ragweed ]
Once upon a time, you had it all. You let everybody down. You’re always seventeen in your hometown. Runnin’ from your folks, runnin’ from the law, runnin’ from love, runnin’ from your fears, runnin’ from it all: you keep on runnin’ boy, you’ll run yourself in the ground.
