East I-70

(album: Raising The Bar - 2022)

Uh
Shao
Uh

I know to come, lean on me homie
Bring 'Souri home, please Lord, please help me
I know, I know, all the angels carried me that day
Going 95 miles an hour, I was driving East I-70
I was driving East I-70
Oh whoa
I was driving East I-70
I was driving East I-70
Oh whoa
I was driving East I-70

Uh
This ain't no story telling time, this is real spill
I had a talk with Tech and Trav and finished out the deal
A different place up in my life, I asked to give me space
I need to get my thoughts together, different energy
I took some time for the family, it was family first
And there's no measurement to family, what the family's worth
I sat at home, playing Legos with my little son
And little Zaiden asking daddy "when will 'Souri come?"
Told my little man "it could happen any day"
I'm jumping out the window so I can go and provide a way
Clearing out the schedule, there was nothing in the way
I'm in and out of lanes, East I-70
I'll be driving 'Souri home

I know to come, lean on me homie
Bring 'Souri home, please Lord, please help me
I know, I know, all the angels carried me that day
Going 95 miles an hour, I was driving East I-70
I was driving East I-70
Oh whoa
I was driving East I-70
I was driving East I-70
Oh whoa
I was driving East I-70

Uh
Bossie called me, told me "baby 'Souri on the way"
I get to see the precious face that mom and daddy made
I get up quick, grab my keys, hop up in the whip
I'm on the road to St. Louis, four hour trip
And no sleep, by any means said I gotta make it
And she in labor now, and then she's fully dilated
I'm barely woke, running off the road to keep it real
My life flashed on me, fell asleep up out the wheel
See it all occured, out of body, my experience
Living in the flesh, but I'm protected by the spirit
The angels came for me, never know until you're near 'em
Lived to tell the story so my baby girl can hear it
Tryna bring 'Souri home

[*car crashing*]
[*child screaming*]
[*ambulance siren*]
[*dispatch voice*]

I know to come, lean on me homie
Bring 'Souri home, please Lord, please help me
I know, I know, all the angels carried me that day
Going 95 miles an hour, I was driving East I-70
I was driving East I-70
Oh whoa
I was driving East I-70
I was driving East I-70
Oh whoa
I was driving East I-70
