Faint Not – Copyright 2010 One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)
Music and Lyrics by Tyler Somers (BMI) and Jennifer Somers (BMI)
The problem’s not a gun, not a color, not a hundred dollar bill
We think the struggle can be won with simple thoughts like 'come together be good willed'
The gap between the rich and poor is spreading out all the more or so they say
We ignore the claims
O my soul, faint not, no, faint not
O my soul, keep up, up
In love
It’s not that we don’t know or we’re not shown the proof of poverty
It’s not that we don’t have the tools to go to break this yoke of slavery
We quit because it’s not an easy fix and then forget that they are even there
We forget to care
O my soul, faint not, no, faint not
O my soul, keep up, up
In love
Where there is hatred, let me sow love
Where there is injury, let me pardon
Where there is darkness, let the Light come, come
O my soul, faint not, no, faint not
O my soul, keep up, up
In love
O my soul, faint not, no, faint not
O my soul, keep up, up
In love
Faint not
Faint not

Jenny & Tyler Nashville, Tennessee
We're married. We make music. We like it. Maybe you will too.
Jenny & Tyler recommends:
I Am Only a Tiny Noise
by Levi Weaver
Picture Damien Rice, Radiohead, and Johnny Cash morphing into one person, and you're sort of getting close. Simply put, Levi Weaver is fantastic.

Apples & Eve Sampler
by NEULORE
This Nashville band sounds like they're from the UK, or Portland, or some perfect combination thereof. Wonderful melodies, beautiful vocals, stirring lyrics.

The Same Mistakes
by Hot Left Pole
Soft-as-a-whisper folk music, with spiderwebs of guitar and vocal melodies as comforting as a lullaby.

Whispery indie folk from the UK, “Hard Work” cradles soft and gentle vocal melodies in a nest of acoustic guitars.

Feel The Ground You Walk Upon
