Maren Morris Humble Quest

According to Stereogum – The song “Humble Quest” I wrote early last year, so it wasn’t quite the first song that I made for this record. But it was that gut punch that I get when I just know I’m onto something and I knew I wanted it to be the title of this era. Those two words just fell into my head out of the sky when I was driving around Nashville one morning and I had no idea what they meant. I just quickly recorded it. And I went back to my house, and I just sat at the piano for an hour and tried to figure out, “What, that’s so weird.” It was intriguing, “Humble Quest” — what would that mean? And so, yeah, I got the first few lines going and I brought it to my friends [composer] Laura Veltz and [producer] Jimmy Robbins the next day.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Haven’t looked up in a while
Been bitin’ my tongue behind a smile
Fallin’ on swords that I can’t see
Poisoned my world, on the daily

[Verse 2]
Got easier not to ask
Just kept hittin’ my head on the glass
I was so nice ’til I woke up
I was polite ’til I spoke up

[Chorus]
I’m on a humble quest
And damn, I do my best
Not gonna hold my breath
‘Cause I still haven’t found it yet
No, I still haven’t found it yet

[Verse 3]
The line between fulfilled and full of myself
I’m tryna find it and I might need some help
Standin’ up was enough of a battle
How do I not cast a shadow?
I’m a hell of a hassle

[Chorus]
I’m on a humble quest
And damn, I do my best
Not gonna hold my breath
‘Cause I still haven’t found it yet
No, I still haven’t found it yet

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh

[Bridge]
I’m on a, I’m on a
I’m on a humble quest
I’m on a, I’m on a
I’m on a humble quest
Not gonna hold my breath

[Chorus]
I’m on a humble quest
And damn, I do my best
Not gonna hold my breath
‘Cause I still haven’t found it yet, oh-oh
I’m on a humble quest
And damn, I do my best
Not gonna hold my breath
‘Cause I still haven’t found it yet
No, I still haven’t found it yet

[Outro]
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-ooh
