Tail lights


I see a fork in the road
I don't know what path I'm taking
But my compass is broke
And I don't know if I'ma to make it
Yee, yee

Told a lot of lies, pushed the love aside
Tried to drive away, but my hands are tied
Never giving up, always stay and fight for me

I been driving this road
I been driving this road
Uh huh, fork in the middle, got two choices to go
Give the kids a kiss for me if I don't make it home
When I was growing up, we didn't have a diagnosis
We just kept taking more to get the serotonin
Got older and all of my homies overdosing, and therapy
Wasn't an option to process our emotions

Mama always said, "What you afraid of, boy?"
"Everything's good, you got angels, boy"
"Closed mouths go hungry, better raise your voice"
God-sized hole, no replacing the void

We create out of chaos, the music is a seance
The land that our ancestors' grave's on
My favorite artists are my two little girls
I see freedom first hand in what they make with their crayons
The light, it was always on glow
When I was lost I was on the right road
Tail lights ahead as I drive slow
Just a right turn then I find my way home

I see a fork in the road
I don't know what path I'm taking
But my compass is broke
And I don't know if I'm going to make it
Yee, yee

Told a lot of lies, pushed the love aside
Tried to drive away, but my hands are tied
Never giving up, always stay and fight for me
I'll follow your tail lights
To wherever they may lead
I'll follow your tail lights
I'll try and match your speed

Virgil said that when you make it to the penthouse
It's your duty to send the elevator back down
Somewhere along the highway I got lost
And I realized God was ahead of me all along
My mind on my business, grind my only mission
Most High, the messenger wasn't quiet enough to listen
My time was occupied, when even dining with my children
It's like me, myself, and I, and I lost sight of the vision

On borrowed time, living in extra innings
Industry survives, I'm glorifying the millions
The playlists and the streams, the album bundles and tees
But they cannot manufacture what resides in the spirit
The Phantom ain't enough if you don't remember all of the countless rides in the Civic
The moments of failure that proceeded this
Not giving a fuck about other people's perception
That's what freedom is and that's what I'm going to teach my kids
Any moment, peace is available
You just gotta remember to breathe it in
And finally I can breathe again
Anyway, man, I'm going to roll the dice
God got the wheel regardless of where I go in life

I know tonight, it was always on glow
And when I was lost, I was on the right road
Tail lights ahead as I drive slow
Just a right turn then I find my way home

I see a fork in the road
I don't know what path I'm taking
But my compass is broke
And I don't know if I'm going to make it
Yee, yee

Told a lot of lies, pushed the love aside
Tried to drive away, but my hands are tied
Never giving up, always stay and fight for me

I'll follow your tail lights
To wherever they may lead
I'll follow your tail lights
I'll try and match your speed

I don't use turn signals
Windows tinted, got a perfect view
World's ending, I'm going to burn with you
Sun going down gotta turn in soon, oh yeah

Looking in my rear view glass
Learning from the past with a beautiful crash
Write my name in the dust on the dash
It fades, but the memories last

Tail lights
Tail lights
Tail lights

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
