Cracks of Time Upon My Face is a reflection on growing older and learning to accept every mark that life leaves behind. Each line and wrinkle becomes a memory — evidence of the years lived rather than something to hide. Some were shaped by happiness, while others came through mistakes, loss and survival. Together they tell the story of a life that could never have been lived without both joy and pain. The song looks back without wishing to erase or rewrite the difficult chapters. Every road travelled and every lesson learned helped shape the man standing there today. Cracks of Time Upon My Face is ultimately about embracing the years — because every line has earned its place.
LYRICS
“Chorus” Cracks of time upon my face Cracks of time, none out of place Cracks of time left a trace “Verse 1” Years of living let the lines appear Each one holds a memory dear Life’s lessons learned are written there Not one of them I’d choose to spare “CHORUS” Cracks of time upon my face Years of living left their trace Every line has earned its place Cracks of time upon my face A wise man’s truth I now embrace Cracks of time, cracks of time Upon my face, upon my face Left their trace, earned their place Cracks of time upon my face Cracks of time, none out of place Cracks of time left a trace “Verse 2” Some lines run deeper from mistakes Some hold the memories loss creates Some seasons were about survival Still, I wouldn’t write them any different “Pre-Chorus” Every wrinkle, every lane I’ve known Wouldn’t think of changing a day The road made me the man I am today “Final Chorus” Cracks of time upon my face Cracks of time, none out of place Cracks of time left a trace Cracks of time upon my face Years of living left their trace Every line has earned its place Cracks of time upon my face A wise man’s truth I now embrace Cracks of time, cracks of time Upon my face, upon my face Left their trace, earned their place Cracks of time, cracks of time Upon my face, upon my face Cracks of time upon my face Cracks of time, none out of place Cracks of time left a trace
