Lightning Bolts

(album: Welcome Home - 2010)

Father if I die ahead of you
One thing that I hope you do
Always know you were a fine example
Mama if I had to fly
Long before it comes your time
Always know that I always loved you
And if I go before you both
It was just my time to go
I'll visit you in lightning bolts
Until we meet again
We'll meet again
I never gave a damn don't have a damn to give
I never had a plan all I want to do is live
I don't know a whole lot
I learned what I learned
When the spots hot get out before you get burned
No need to hurry got to wait your turn
I love my plants I don't mean those ferns
Eyes on the prize try to tell no lies
La lalalala lala
Broken bones been scared beat with a brick
Around here order got hit for a lick
I stood in a snake pit and I been bit
Here I am with another fifth gettin lit y'all
Father if I die ahead of you one thing that I hope you do
Is always know you were a fine example
Mama if I had to fly long before it comes your time
Always know that I always loved you
And if I go before you both it was just my time to go
I'll visit you in lightning bolts until we meet again
We'll meet again
I've loved and lost I've gambled and won
I looked down the barrel of a big ol gun
Down in the grave you don't get no sun
So I seize the day watch it ease away
I've gone a little right all kinds of wrong
You can live your whole life hope you live long
Hot butter pop da pop da popcorn
It goes on && on & on & on on
Makin it to mirrors just seein the next dawn
Even if hes drunk face down on the lawn
I'm broke but I got me a necklace to pawn
I been reckless since the day I was born
Father if I die ahead of you one thing that
I hope you do is always know you were a fine example
Mama if I had to fly long before it comes your time
Always know that I always loved you
And if I go before you both it was just my time to go
I'll visit you in lightning bolts until we meet again
We'll meet again
