rap about std"s and horses

[Intro – dusty acoustic guitar riff, muted kick drum] Stable gates creak at dawn Truths we hide start to yawn [Verse 1 – steady bassline, subtle shaker] Down at the barn where the hay bales stack Guys trade stories, hit the sack Thinkin' a quick romp's just a harmless track But the stable's got secrets that don't hold back Ain't just the colts that can catch a stray Silent shadows gonna make you pay No warning sign, no price to pay upfront Till the doctor's note hits, and your luck runs blunt [Chorus – layered backing vocals, snare roll accent] Stable life ain't all oats and hay Hidden thorns gonna make you sway You can't outrun what you don't see Keep your guard up, stay free Stable life ain't all oats and hay Hidden thorns gonna make you sway You can't outrun what you don't see Keep your guard up, stay free [Verse 2 – slightly faster flow, guitar picks up pace] Old Jake's mare got a cough that won't quit Vet said it's a bug that's hard to split He thought it was just a winter chill Till the whole herd got sick, and his bills got real Same with the folks down at the county fair Thinkin' a quick kiss ain't gonna care But the same germs that spread through the stall Can crawl through your skin, make your back hit the wall [Chorus – more intense vocals, added tambourine] Stable life ain't all oats and hay Hidden thorns gonna make you sway You can't outrun what you don't see Keep your guard up, stay free Stable life ain't all oats and hay Hidden thorns gonna make you sway You can't outrun what you don't see Keep your guard up, stay free [Bridge – stripped back, just vocals and soft guitar] It ain't about shame, it's about the truth Horses and humans, we're both in the booth Get checked, get safe, don't play the fool The stable's a teacher, follow the rule [Solo – gritty electric guitar, slow bluesy bend] (Instrumental Solo) [Chorus – full band, maximum energy] Stable life ain't all oats and hay Hidden thorns gonna make you sway You can't outrun what you don't see Keep your guard up, stay free Stable life ain't all oats and hay Hidden thorns gonna make you sway You can't outrun what you don't see Keep your guard up, stay free [Outro – fading guitar, final kick drum] Stable gates close at dusk Truths we learn, we must trust
