Cause Unknown

Song Title: Cause Unknown

(Verse 1)

Woke up to the news, another young heart gone,

Twenty-five and fit, but the reaper came along.

Doctors scratch their heads, say it's just bad luck,

But the numbers don't lie, man, we're all outta duck.

From the gridiron fields to the factory floor,

Healthy folks droppin', can't ignore it no more.

Wall Street whiz kid crunched the data so cold,

Excess deaths risin', stories left untold.

(Chorus)

Cause unknown, yeah, that's what they say,

But the truth's in the graves, diggin' night and day.

Sudden and silent, like a thief in the night,

Young bloods fadin', put up a fight.

We got questions burnin', flames in our souls,

Cause unknown, but we're breakin' the mold.

Rock on through the pain, let the guitars wail,

For the lost and the lonely, on this freedom trail.

(Verse 2)

Insurance claims sky high, disabilities too,

2021 hit hard, like a freight train through.

Vaxxed up and ready, but the side effects hide,

Media turns blind, politicians take sides.

Athletes collapsin', pilots in the sky,

Kids in their prime, askin' God why.

Dowd's book lays it bare, with charts and the proof,

Ain't no conspiracy, just the bitter truth.

(Chorus)

Cause unknown, yeah, that's what they say,

But the truth's in the graves, diggin' night and day.

Sudden and silent, like a thief in the night,

Young bloods fadin', put up a fight.

We got questions burnin', flames in our souls,

Cause unknown, but we're breakin' the mold.

Rock on through the pain, let the guitars wail,

For the lost and the lonely, on this freedom trail.

(Bridge)

Hell, I ain't no doctor, just a rebel with a mic,

But I see the patterns, strikin' like a spike.

Families broken, dreams turned to dust,

Time to rise up, in the ones we trust.

No more hidin', no more lies in the dark,

Light the fire, leave your mark.

(Chorus - Outro)

Cause unknown, but we're callin' it out,

From the heartland streets to the city shout.

Sudden and silent, but we won't back down,

Young bloods forever, wearin' the crown.

We got questions burnin', flames in our souls,

Cause unknown, but we're takin' control.

Rock on through the storm, let the anthem play,

For the truth untold, we'll find our way.

(Fade out with guitar solo)
