I’d say I’ve had rough
Seen some pretty hard days
But I’ve seen gorgeous things
On my awfully brutal way
She was there smiling
In the bedroom tonight when
I told her Gods timing
Working on awfully scary ways
So no rest ’til Brooklyn
No sleep at all
Until I’m dead, or until I’m rich
Or until the Lord comes to call
No rest ’til Brooklyn
No sleep at all
Young man, keep your hands, stay standing
Don’t stop swinging ’til you fall
No rest ’til Brooklyn
So no rest ’til Brooklyn
No sleep at all
Until I’m dead, or until I’m rich
Or until the Lord comes to call
No rest ’til Brooklyn
No sleep at all
Young man, keep your hands, stay standing
Don’t stop swinging ’til you fall
No rest ’til Brooklyn
Perseverance on the Road to Brooklyn
Zach Bryan’s “’Til Brooklyn” is an evocative anthem about resilience, faith, and the relentless pursuit of a dream. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a struggle-ridden journey, marked by both hardship and fleeting moments of beauty. Bryan’s storytelling is raw and honest: he acknowledges his rough past while holding onto the hope and support found in a loved one’s smile. The repeated refrain, “No rest ’til Brooklyn, no sleep at all,” becomes a mantra for never giving up—whether the goal is success, peace, or spiritual fulfillment. The song’s energy encourages listeners to keep moving forward, to stay standing, and to keep “swinging ’til you fall,” embodying that enduring spirit in the face of life’s challenges.
