Tobacco Road - Common Market |
[00:36.20] |
I guess it has been a minute |
[00:37.64] |
And the south paw aint felt right without the pen in it |
[00:40.70] |
Sent for incentive and sittin' submissive |
[00:42.38] |
But nothin' bringin' Jimmy back, you know that prayin' a waste of wishes |
[00:46.18] |
I made a decision carry on, honor lives in the deed |
[00:49.56] |
Though the muse moves in decreased speed |
[00:51.80] |
Due to the wait, my dude lose patience with me. |
[00:54.61] |
Favor the Blue, you knew what I was trainin' to be |
[00:57.60] |
I came for the takin' of something they aint seen back in Henry |
[01:00.72] |
The proximity to Knox's Fort's not given any but |
[01:03.66] |
Cause to envy. Lord when have we fought the enemy |
[01:06.65] |
With more that afforded, we're stormin' the port of entry |
[01:09.34] |
In memory of the James Clan, my symphony of the |
[01:12.77] |
Flames fan to conquer, when the song come on/ pay the band |
[01:15.95] |
Send a percentage back, Oldham owed, factor in estate tax |
[01:18.76] |
So wave it if it goes to pave Tobacco Road |
[01:21.44] |
Some memories I kept |
[01:23.69] |
Others left, others I must have let go to protect |
[01:26.44] |
Hold a check for the row I set. ready No, not yet |
[01:29.87] |
Well lemme know and I'll return to collect |
[01:31.86] |
They never found me 'cause Valerie's boy had a different rhythm to play to |
[01:36.23] |
And he gon' use his tools to break through |
[01:38.41] |
Mindful of the nights in that state, who they say life is what you make it |
[01:42.41] |
When really life is what makes you |
[01:44.40] |
Payin' homage, with a big nod to Aubrey |
[01:47.03] |
The schools failed me, thank God the farm taught me |
[01:50.08] |
The value of a calloused hand, how to work and plow this land |
[01:53.14] |
How even a modest crop will make your pop the proudest man |
[01:56.01] |
Harvest of a thousand fans, sans a gram of seeds broadcast |
[01:58.70] |
Through loud speakers, in the weeds I was born last |
[02:01.69] |
Profound effect on my volume, plus the readiness to fill it |
[02:05.13] |
In the field you should hear what they call 'em |
[02:07.62] |
Regardless I should have spent another year on the bottom tier |
[02:10.12] |
Instead of trynna dodge what it was I thought got 'em here |
[02:13.20] |
89 the number, 84 lumber another summer |
[02:16.57] |
Fightin' for cash to mash on the likening |
[02:18.57] |
Of cycles I've seen those not keen on college |
[02:21.63] |
Lost direction or went to be correctional officers |
[02:23.44] |
No opportunity was offered us, I had my sights on |
[02:27.50] |
Being gone 'fore they cut the lights on, Ryan's song |
[02:30.43] |
Right or wrong, tie it tighter, I'm tired of buying into |
[02:33.13] |
Guidance gone awry, my father fought it with firearms and |
[02:36.44] |
Died in the trauma the violence spawned a child of drama |
[02:39.44] |
No wonder he's prone to wander, knowin' his home is haunted |
[02:42.18] |
Prayin' that over yonder they still know |
[02:44.36] |
How much I love 'em I just had to go, had it with the status quo |
[02:48.11] |
They're askin' me if I'll be back when I'm old |
[02:50.67] |
In fact, no these are my last tracks along Tobacco Road |
[02:53.73] |
|
[02:55.11] |
But I'll forever call it home |
[02:56.42] |
And I feel it whenever I call home |
[02:58.18] |
|
[02:58.74] |
But I'll forever call it home |
[03:01.18] |
And I feel it whenever I call home |
[03:02.74] |
But I'll forever call it home |
[03:05.52] |
And I feel it whenever I call home |
[03:08.33] |
But I'll forever call it home |
[03:10.14] |
|
[03:12.55] |
And I feel it whenever I call home |
[03:14.42] |
whenever I call home |
