Some of the most powerful expression comes not from the written word or the spoken thought, but rather from the sweet sound of music. It’s easy to get lost in the rhythm, the eloquence, the melody. Music has the ability to transform lives, providing an escape from the world and helping us connect with others on a deeper, more emotional level. Often times, lost in the soothing sounds and feel-good melodies are the true life lessons, ones that offer the keys for a better way of life. Zac Brown Band has done well in capturing the essence of a simple and humble, yet satisfying life, one full of excitement and meaning behind every moment. Make the messages the soundtrack to your life.
Remember your roots
“Here in a small town where it feels like home. I got everything I need and nothing that I don’t.” – Homegrown
Appreciate the things that matter
“It’s funny how it’s the little things in life that mean the most, not where you live or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes. There’s no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I’ve come to know.” – Chicken Fried
Let go of what is out of your control
“Save your strength for things that you can change. Forgive the ones you can’t. You gotta let ‘em go.” – Let It Go
Find your happy place and escape once in a while
“Gonna put the the world away for a minute, pretend I don’t live in it. Sunshine gonna wash my blues away.” – Knee Deep
Live in the moment
“We’re gonna make this day a little better than the last. It’s amazing how slow days like this can go. Find a way to wash away, any regret you have. Don’t let this moment pass but live inside this day.” – Make This Day
Respect and thank those who've served
“I thank god for my life and for the stars and stripes. May freedom forever fly, let it ring. Salute the ones who died, the ones that gave their lives, so we don’t have to sacrifice all the things we love.” – Chicken Fried
Talk less, listen more
“And if you’re too busy talkin’, you’re not busy listenin’ to hear what the land has to say. Quiet your mind.” – Quiet Your Mind
Don't rush your life
“Ain’t in no hurry. I’d be a fool now to worry about all those things I can’t change. And the time that I borrow can wait till tomorrow ‘cause I ain’t in no hurry today.” – No Hurry
Take a chance
“You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith.” – As She’s Walking Away
