About this song

When you have to find someone on the lamb, you call in a trusty tracker!

Lyrics

Verse 1:
The scent is old but I can still read
Faint threads in the dirt, hours gone cold
My nose sorts the layers, finds the one
Time pulls against me, fading the trail
Chorus:
I won't lose this, not today
Every step matters, every choice
The ground speaks if I listen close enough
I'll find what I was sent to find
Verse 2:
The surface changes, pavement holds nothing
I cast wide, searching for where it picks up
There—beneath the leaves—a trace remains
I commit to it though it's barely there
Chorus:
I won't lose this, not today
Every step matters, every choice
The ground speaks if I listen close enough
I'll find what I was sent to find
Bridge:
My neck aches from hours nose to ground
My mind stays sharp though body begs to rest
I backtrack, try again, refuse to quit
This is what I do when it gets hard
Verse 3:
The wind has scattered it but threads remain
I sort contamination from the trail I need
Experience tells me where to look next
Trust the faint when there's nothing else
Verse 4:
The scent strengthens—finally, finally
The trail narrows, leads me to the end
I stop and signal: here, this is it
Relief washes through me—it's done
Final Chorus:
I didn't lose this, not today
Every step mattered, every choice
The ground spoke and I listened close enough
I found what I was sent to find
Outro:
The trail ends here
My work is done
Now comes the good part—
Time to play, time to run
