On the Road

Chasing days chasing days now Papa was a Rolling stone Can't see my face, see my face now Papa said you're on your own Living out a suitcase, I'm on the road now There's a lot up on my mind, I need to slow it down Coming through your city, for a good time Pray to God we make it, we'll be alright We'll be alright Now a lot of y'all don't understand the work that we put in now From the road to the shows to the interviews, I guess we got some fans now I've been away from my loved ones for about a month at the least To know my mama home praying is a comfort for me I'm fighting everyday to be the man I wanted to be They say the devil won't be happy and he coming for me I give him hell before they put me in Heaven I want a Chevy Chevelle ever since I was like 7 So I'm stepping with my blessings I'm a tenant to a taint Not just the earthly goods, I'm talking heavenly things That's on my everything, I won't let him steal my soul Tell my people I'm feeling confident than ever before That's for real Chasing days chasing days now Papa was a Rolling stone Can't see my face, see my face now Papa said you're on your own Living out a suitcase, I'm on the road now There's a lot up on my mind, I need to slow it down Coming through your city, for a good time Pray to God we make it, we'll be alright We'll be alright Questioning my motives for arriving in this moment What is it worth to gain the world and lose your soul I'm on the road but did I ever even own it All I know is I ain't know it Feeling like a man without a place to lay my head Or I bury it in the sand, am I too close to the ledge Am I too close to the dead that I'm becoming them instead Doing my part to resurrect Feeling the earth's breathe, this is the worst yet Know I'm not perfect but why am I out here with you while my son is taking his first steps? Wife say I feel distant cause in the distance And I just wanna be a man, full of commitment Soul provider in a void, If I'm not the change I wanna see I can't make a difference Chasing days chasing days now Papa was a Rolling stone Can't see my face, see my face now Papa said you're on your own Living out a suitcase, I'm on the road now There's a lot up on my mind, I need to slow it down Coming through your city, for a good time Pray to God we make it, we'll be alright We'll be alright Take it how you wanna take it, you know I can't fake it I'm just a rusty couch potato bringing home the bacon Whenever I am on the road it's hard to practice patience Sometimes I go toe to toe with the show and that's motivation When I meet a person after that, like "yo we glad you're here" I'm like that's nice to know, but you are unaware Of the fear that I carry in my heart That I would miss at least a part of wife and kids Man, I feel like Joan of Arch You see, my wife think I'm turning up But inside I'm burning up At the stake, I'm bringing home the steak and this is no mistake But I can't even sit and eat the meat that I done freaking slain And I just want to lick the plate I'm telling you it's no debate I swear your boy is underpaid and they want me to pay dues I'd rather pay attention to family than to pay fools I say to, anybody that think they want this life You gotta know the toll it takes and don't forget to pay your tolls And then to pump your brakes, change your oil, get some gas Cause you don't know how long this vehicle gon' last This vehicle could crash, and er'ybody die Cause the bus driver decided it was time to get high Now look we here on the road, and it's all about getting home And it's all about having fun, and it's all about getting grown It's all about being out and about, turning all of your thoughts to rout Taking all your experiences and turnin' them into a song Chasing days chasing days now Papa was a Rolling stone Can't see my face, see my face now Papa said you're on your own Living out a suitcase, I'm on the road now There's a lot up on my mind, I need to slow it down Coming through your city, for a good time Pray to God we make it, we'll be alright We'll be alright --- On the Road - Dream Junkies & Ruslan & Beleaf & John Givez
