A new one. I have at least 5 male friends who have faced overwhelming adversity and pain and tragedy in their lives over the past year or two, but have risen above it all through the sheer strength of their faith and utter manhood, as quiet heroes. I wrote this song to celebrate them. They know who they are. THE HEROBy David Snyder https://soundcloud.com/david-snyder-gigs4/the-heroV1 They say you have to beat the odds And give it all you’ve got Fight against your fatal flaws Just to reach that mountain top They say you’ll never know what you can take Until you reach that point where you might break CH But sometimes the hero Is the man who doesn’t change And sometimes the hero’s the man Who just lives with the pain And sometimes the hero is the man who doesn’t have to be ashamed Because sometimes the hero Is the man who doesn’t change V2 And he knows you have to live by faith So he always says his grace And he’ll rush into a raging fire If there’s someone he can save And he’ll never say there’s no more he can take Cause that man of faith never hits the point where other men might break CH Cause sometimes the hero Is the man who doesn’t change And sometimes the hero Is the man who lives with the pain And sometimes the hero is man who doesn’t have to be ashamed Because sometimes the hero Is the man who doesn’t change BRIDGE You keep the faith You keep the faith Even in the pouring rain You keep the faith You keep the faith It’s the one thing that remains You keep the faith You keep the faith And that’s never gonna change You keep the faith You keep the faith It’s the one thing that remains CH Yeah sometimes the hero Is the man who doesn’t change And sometimes the hero Is the man who lives with the pain And sometimes the hero is man who doesn’t have to be ashamed Because sometimes the hero Is the man who doesn’t change All music and lyrics copyright 2024 by David Snyder ASCAP/Day of Faith Music David Snyder: Vocals, Guitar, Additional Instrumentation, Mixing and Mastering RealTracks in style: ~1636:Bass, Electric, JazzFunkBreezy Ev16 075 RealTracks in style: 2825:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm CountryPopMike12-key Ev 085 RealTracks in song: 4024:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm ModCountryBalladHeldPlus Ev16 075 RealDrums in style:AmericanaSlow8thsFred: a: Snare, HiHat b: Snare, Ride

David, very cool song indeed! Really strong vocals again on this one. Cool modulation, and the big ending gets VERY big without going off the rails. All this musical goodness and a message, too. Love it!

I really like the message you have in this on.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Very inspiring indeed. One of your best. Great job.
https://soundcloud.com/user-646279677BiaB 2024 Windows For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

First a SNyder/Williams collab, then a new Daved Snyder song. A great way to start the day. Love this, man! Extraordinary lyrics and sentiment. Yep, I know some of those guys. "The man who doesn't change" says so much.

Hey thanks DC! I am so glad you liked it.
I am so proud of my friends, both male and female, who have typified the type of courage under pressure I'm talking about in this song, and the list is quite long at this point.
Yeah sometimes you don't have to face all of your demons, and grapple with your fatal flaws, and overcome all of your weaknesses in order to become the hero of the greatest Hollywood Blockbuster plot and summertime hit that the world has ever seen.
Sometimes you just have to keep on being yourself when all the world around you is collapsing.

Very cool arrangement David - made more so by your guitars. I take "faith" in this song as something other than religion. After all "keep the faith" is synonymous with keep your promise, keep the standard, hold to the truth, stay true etc. Uplifting for certain.

Wow! Daivd, this is another excellent creation. I love what you've done. The arrangement, the lyrics and the melody had me mesmerised. It's such an excellent sounding band and terrific song. And that key change is the icing on a pretty delicious cake. Loved it! --Noel

That is a powerful tribute to your friends and their endurance. We can hear the passion in your vocal.
The build is very effective and the modulation was a nice surprise.
We've only written a few very personal songs. For us it was both draining and rewarding. We get it.
Kudos!
