Dust and Glory is a reflective ballad about the rise and fall of human striving—the space between ambition and humility, victory and weariness. It tells the story of lives lived chasing meaning, discovering that glory fades, but what we endure and give of ourselves remains. With earthy imagery and emotional depth, the song reminds us that every triumph is touched by dust, and every struggle carries its own quiet honor. It is a song for those who have walked hard roads, tasted both failure and pride, and learned what truly lasts.
