SPINNIN' WHEELS song by The Wild Still

A "swampy" Americana song written by JJ Anderson, depicting that period of time we often struggle in with dreams or goals that stay in a holding pattern without clarity and action and more days pass without getting closer to the goal. But there is the belief, in an instant we can break free from the mental chains that hold us back. Lyrics: SPINNIN’ WHEELS Sunrise hits that same ol’ wall, Coffee’s cold before the call. Plans I’ve drawn on napkin dreams, Fade like smoke and gasoline. Every road looks paved in rust, When you’re chasing gold from dust. I’m just spinnin’ wheels, burnin’ days, Stuck between the want and the way. Got a map but not the drive, Tryin’ to keep these hopes alive. The harder I push, the deeper it feels — Lord, I’m tired of spinnin’ wheels. Doubt creeps in when the night gets long, Says, “Boy, you’re dreamin’, you’re dreamin’ wrong.” But I still see that mountain top, Even if my faith won’t drop. Someday I’ll break this chain of mud, Trade my fear for fire and blood. I’m just spinnin’ wheels, burnin’ days, Stuck between the want and the way. Got a plan but not the proof, Tryin’ to raise this dream to truth. The harder I push, the deeper it feels — Yeah, I’m tired of spinnin’ wheels. Maybe stillness ain’t the curse, Maybe waiting makes it worth — The climb, the fight, the miles unseen, Maybe I’m just buildin’ steam. Spinnin’ wheels, burnin’ days, But I’m findin’ faith in the delays. Got a spark, it’s faint but real — And one day it’s gonna turn the steel. Yeah, I’ll break free, I know how it feels… When you’ve been tired of spinnin’ wheels.
