Back in 2021, Luke Combs wrote a special song called “The Great Divide.” He wrote it with his friends Billy Strings and Wyatt Durrette because he was sad about all the fighting in the world. He did not want to take sides or be political. He just wanted to use his big voice to show that we are all drifting apart like a giant crack in the ground.
The song sounds like a mix of old country and fast bluegrass, with a sincere feel. Luke sings about how people are “striking matches on the TV” and getting angry at their phones every single day. It is the kind of music that makes you want to sit down and talk to a friend.
Luke Combs, Billy Strings – The Great Divide (Lyric Video)
Fans who listened to the song had a lot to say. One person said the song makes them weep because everyone seems to hate each other over politics. Most people agree that the world feels divided by greed, and they want respect to come back.
While that song talks about the whole country, Luke also writes about the people closest to him. His songs have meaningful lyrics that people can relate to. Just like he tried to bridge a gap with Billy Strings, he uses his music to thank the people who carried him.
